Jo telephoned to query how long it is likely to take to process our application and we got told the following:
- The landlord wasn't expecting applications so soon as he didn't expect the premises to be repainted so quickly.
- Since we've asked to move in on the 8th of September, which is "a fair delay", the application must be referred to the landlord.
- The landlord is interstate and the application can't be processed until he returns.
Now to me it looks like some of them are mutually exclusive, but I'm no real-estate agent, so I guess we have to wait. Surely if they weren't expecting the premises to be ready until September, the fact that we want to move in then should be acceptable?
