We were just about to exchange contracts for a garden flat in Deeside. We encountered a stumbling block. Our mortgage offer with Godiva Mortgages Ltd expires on 21/3/2023 but the owners are insisting on a completion date of 23/3/2023. Can one extend the loan expiry date?

In this instance you may not have contact with your conveyancing practitioner and due to the lack of continuity in the transaction, it may be difficult to obtain updates.
