• @Stonehedge thank you for the link, parts of that are already copy n' pasted into my reply email! And @howard & @TW after a few beers, and plenty of internet reading, I'm taking your advice.

    I'll keep you all updated. I'm sure its going to get messy as reading between the lines in the email I've received, the sale is subject to the new owner moving in on the 1st July in two weeks.

  • Hopefully this means you'll be able to negotiate a nice big pay off.

    Keep us updated. Your situation really boils my piss. If he wants you out, he has to make it worth your while.

    This!

  • An update has come, this is the reply I've just received:

    My sincere apologies.

    The email I sent you requesting a move-out in two weeks was a mistake.

    At first when I began reading your email I couldn't understand your
    email at first. Then I had a look back at what I'd said.

    No, clearly two weeks is obviously not an acceptable time frame. This
    was a genuine mistake which occurred whilst looking at the wrong month
    on my laptop calendar. I hope you'll accept my apologies for the undue
    stress caused to you upon reading that.

    The actual date I had intended to reference was the last Friday of
    July, being midday on the 29th of July as the final move-out date.

    The property being vacated on this day is not ideal and the day before
    would be better to allow time for a change over, but as I had
    mentioned in my previous email, it's common for people to want to move
    on a Friday - the prospective buyers would like to pick up keys on the
    Friday afternoon and I was prepared to include this day incase you
    also had this preference.

    Could you please confirm you are in agreement with a move out date of
    July 29th.

    Would you also provide your partners surname please as the purchasers
    solicitors require that information and my solicitors may also be
    required to get a signature from both you and your partner that you are aware
    of the Sale and confirming it will be vacated by the given date.

    Regarding the check out report, I could look back at the file although
    I'm sure your right when you say that the lettings agents made a mess of
    the check-in and I believe that was also one of the reasons I chose to
    dispense with their services too.

    I won't therefore be booking an inventory clerk-although I had not
    intended to in any case-and will arrange for someone to visit the
    property as you move out or immediately after you have vacated your
    possessions.

    Its starting to feel like a joke. So far we've gone from two weeks notice, to now six weeks. Although, I'm not sure what's happened to the two months stated in the contract?
