Howard: I'd like to buy this house please for £1.xM
EA: Sure, offer accepted
Vendor: BTW it's been badly affected by subsidence and underpinned but I'm only telling you now that you've incurred costs
Howard: You need to make an allowance for that - buildings insurance is £1,200 year
EA: £3k or we offer it to another interested party / buyer
Howard: We'll think about it runs off to find another house, finds house, makes offer, offer accepted
EA: What do you think
Howard: Fuck you
EA: they will go to the other buyer
Howard: OK hun, also: fuck you
EA: Howard, turns out the other buyer won't be qualified until January and surprise, vendor doesn't want an empty period property over winter. What would it take, £10k?
Howard: £100k
