After researching the coal mining issue, we were able to confirm with Mr & Mrs L that Fairdeal Homes was still able to purchase the property.

15 April 2010 - Broken Chain
Mrs M in Spalding had been considering downsizing for some time, but did not want the hassle or intrusion of potential buyers coming through her house.

Unfortunately her purchase fell through due to a broken chain and therefore she did not need to progress with us. Knowing however that Fairdeal Homes was there to buy her property when she was ready, this gave her the security that she could look for her new house without fear of losing her buyer. Mrs M contacted Fairdeal Homes again in January 2010 as she had found a new property to buy. Her sale has just gone through very smoothly with a chain of four properties.
