I had a vebal agreement on the purchase of a house and also sent a note of intrest to the client via an estate agent, they called me to ask me to up my offer which would secure me getting the house which I did, and less than 48 hours latter I was called to say they have sold to someone elses. Were do I stand?

Hi helen and welcome to the forum

This forum is for people who are insolvent to get advice, so I am afraid there is little help I can offer apart from to confirm that you have been gazumped. You have no legal recourse against the vendor or the estate agent, so better luck next time.
