5 Things Only First Time Home Buyers Will Understand
2. Knowing The Voice Of Your Estate Agent Better Than That Of Your Own Family
Forget your parents, forget your partner, forget everyone last loved one, for these few months the only person you want to hear from is your estate agent. From the first phone call about your first offer, right down to the news that you can exchange the contracts, every time their name flashes up on your phone your heart skips several beats. Will it be news that crushes your spirits and sends you back to square one, or will it be something that changes your life forever?
Not since your first teenage romance have you been so nervous answering the phone. Day or night, at work or at play, your phone is never more than a single ring from being answered. You'll walk over your colleagues to take the call, go to the gym with it taped to your hand and, as for that invite to the cinema tonight, forget it. There's no signal in there and you don't want to miss any updates.
