This might be a long post - sorry in advance!
We have had our Mobile Home in France up for sale for over 20 months ever since my husband practically DIED suffering a Pulmonary Embolism on our return through France in 2017, and spent over a week in Intensive Care in the French Hospital. After much inactivity with the first Sales Agents, I found a new Sales Agent and this has been very successful - 8 enquiries, 4 viewings and TWO offers, the higher offer which we accepted, although MUCH lower than the asking price. This 'Buyer' was very keen and voluntarily offered a 10% Deposit to secure the Sale. We accepted this Deposit.
The whole procedure has been VERY difficult for us, because we can now not travel at all due to my husband's near-fatal collapse, and his Doctor has banned him from traveling long journeys. We therefore have had to rely on the kindness of a friend in France to be a "key-holder" and show all these viewers around - at considerable inconvenience - and we cannot keep repeating this.
However, two days ago we received a letter from this 'Buyer' saying he wishes to pull out of the Sale. We are devastated to say the least. There is no way we can start all over again, since there is now no one in France to show any new potential Buyers around. We ourselves can never go back to France, we are both in our 80's and cannot now travel again (I do not drive and cannot fly because of a serious ear problem). We are absolutely terrified of the possible outcome of this - and we still have to pay the yearly Site Fees of over £4000 where the mobile is sited, despite no one ever using it, or ever being there. We are absolutely bunkered and just do not know what to do - desperately worried.
