  • House buying adventure / headaches continue.

    A few pages back I mentioned some issue that came up with the house we've had an offer accepted on. Seller has said that they're not willing to do the repairs or knock money off the house. Say they need the full amount of the current offer to cover their onward move. Not really our problem but whatevs.

    After some back and forth, they've agreed that they will get quotations on the work that we want them to do and reimburse us by that amount on the day the sale goes through (obvs will need to be in writing and OKd by solicitors).

    All seems pretty roundabout but, from my admittedly naïve perspective, I can't see an issue. We'd get the inconvenience of the work being done but they'd be paying for it.

    Any thoughts?

  • get your own quotes. you can rest assured any they get will be for the shittiest quality money can buy and you'll still end up paying to fix whatever bodge job is foisted on you.

    are any of the issues structural?
