  • The house we offered 40k under has now had a price drop by 20k, although we're yet to hear a response to the offer.

  • I would deduce that if they have dropped the price by £20k your offer hasn't been accepted. Presumably the drop is to see if they can stimulate any further interest.

    Depending on mortgage length and interest rates I would think the extra £20k equates to about £100 per month in mortgage repayments. If you can spring to that, maybe worth offering the revised asking price to get it off the market?

  • Got recommendations for a really fast and efficient lawyer with matching fees (2k-2.2k) in central (always available, super keen and friendly, everything can be done digitally, lots of people I know have appointed him and are equally chuffed) and a good one with normal rates (1.2k in east). Let me know via PM if you want their details. FWIW I don’t get paid for referrals and our surveyor seems to be a forum favourite now 😉
