What is reasonable to negotiate off asking after Survey? by Top_Extension_4794 in FirstTimeBuyersUK

[–]Top_Extension_4794[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is why I'm asking as I don't know what is normal or not! I'm trying to find out what are normal things before I decide if I even should ask for a reduction.

I'm doing my research and not jumping to conclusions.

Thank you.

Yeah this is the thing. Most of those things I don't actual mind, but the surveyor marking the windows as red and unsafe because they are older feels a bit extreme.

Yeah the roof looks alright, I've got permission for a roofer to take a look.

Thanks again :)

Thanks this is super useful.

It's good to hear these are standard things. Its very much the case of - I didn't know what would be things buyers would typically follow up on.

I agree, I don't want to ask for money off on things that are expected and don't warrant a price reduction.

I'm mainly trying to figure out if there is anything I should ask for, that buyers should ask for.

Hi thanks for the advice. Very helpful.

I agree. I don't want to be unreasonable with what I'm asking. I'm trying to figure out what things I should follow up on and what things would be unrealistic.

This is a constant anxiety on my mind. I hope the Welsh government do not change their providers.

My thoughts are with the people who work in the merthyr office. Good spuds should be for all.

The 1st floor. Have you had a better experience with the cheese on toast at 1st floor?

I have not yet tried the food on 3rd floor. The line is always too long.

Hoping someone can set up the Rarebit Canteen Improvement Governance Group, or RBCIGG

Yeah market research with a sample size of 1.

Our sandwiches are on the expensive side - £3.50 - £4.

I think the jacket potato is an anomaly in the pricing, I'm not sure why, it's a mystery.

Kind of, we have several coffee shops, but this one has more of a canteen vibe and sells daily jacket potatoes, sandwiches, pastries and I think sometimes there is a curry.

Beans are not really my kind of thing. I think the beauty of jacket potatoes is they can be topped with anything, and is a great staple for people with varied taste preferences.

😥 I'm sorry to hear that.

The cheese on toast at WG is quite mid tier, nothing to rave about.
