Hi Eliot, congratulations on your purchase, I too am from Wales, sister of Patty and I think 95% of the people on this site know what you are going through. It is a scary procedure, but it is worth the "white knuckle ride" in the end. We are 100% glad we bought our property in Turkey, it was the best thing we ever did, and the most scariest, but it worked out great for us, and for everyone else on this site. Well done, keep us all up to date on whats going on, besides being a friednly lot here on the site, we are also a nosey lot.
Regards
Helen
