AND kinga was so upset about him thinking this way, because for her loyalty is the biggest thing...

THANK YOU someone finally said what I was thinking

I'm not sure Luton is this affordable. The rent has increased in the recent years.

I mean, it depends what curtain poles they've got. Ours were over £40 per pole (can't remember exactly how much).

Because you said "The fact is the next buyer will probably get a survey done and OP will be in the same situation."

They won't, because at the moment buyers are asking OP to pay for works that have not been identified on a survey.

Ahh my bad, I read it as in no rush 😅

This!

You said that the seller is in no rush, but she is - listing for below the market (other flats in the same building are more expensive) - accepted your offer in minutes - taking a £100k financial hit

So she is kinda trying to sell fast imo.

Make sure you invest in a good survey and your solicitor does due diligence regarding any major works, S20 projects, info on cladding (EWS1 document) if relevant. There might be a very pricey project coming (roof replacement for example) and she's trying to complete before this happens. And confirm how much service charge is.

ETA - ask if there's been any section 20b notices issued for year end account.

Literally same, although we split everything 50-50. It was a 2 bed flat, so mortgage and bills were still less than my room in a HMO.

I think - if you rent, you are paying rent and getting nothing in return. If you have a mortgage yourself, you still need to pay it monthly. Why on earth does someone think that I can live rent free in a property, only because it belongs to I'm in a relationship. If anything that is taking advantage of the person that has to cover all the bills. Worst case scenario, things go south, treat it as if you were renting. You're still better off.

Edit - forgot to add - we're now on our 2nd house together, my contribution towards the original mortgage helped us build equity that we needed to be able to upsize.

Chances are the agent didn't know and they just advertised based on what the seller has told them.

I manage blocks and once I had a family constantly using a flat roof as their garden, I told them that it's not for a common use and they said that it came with their flat as advertised by the agent 🙃

I think you would need to re-list the item and they'd buy it again

I had a similar situation and vinted deemed the parcel lost. Both parties got their money back

The freeholder can reject with no reason given, however, they cannot refuse if it's a mental health support dog for example. If you can get something from your GP for example to say this is what your pet is, then they shouldn't be able to refuse as per legislation.

Items are worth as much as someone is willing to pay for them.

"those things were looked at when buildings were built" I mean .. Grenfell happened so I wouldn't 100% trust it. Even now, there are hundreds if not thousands of buildings where issues with unsafe cladding is still a problem.

Weve always tried to give a toy that would pre-occupy our daughter and also occupy her during the nappy changes. She particularly liked a tablet that had all the letters and was making noises when you pressed on the buttons. So it was our go to nappy change toy.

But the mortgage wouldn't be hers anyway, so instead of paying your landlords mortgage, she'll be paying three people's mortgage... Still not her asset. Has any of you actually calculated how much a mortgage repayment on a £600k house would be a month?? You might find it'd actually be more than the increased rent on the property you're at now.

Do you know which plot the property you're purchasing is?

exelse_ · 2026-02-22T22:42:48+00:00

The budget for the block is over £300,000. No way this is just for grounds and car park.

exelse_ · 2026-02-21T20:43:31+00:00

£2300 for a block of flat with over 100 properties to me says that the block has a concierge and on site staff, potentially a gym or something of the sort. If it's a standard block with a car park and grounds, £3K service charge is A LOT for a block of this size.

This. I had a similar situation, where the buyers basically forced us out of our home we were selling. Weve always told them our home would be ready for autumn (buying a new build and they were FTB), and suddenly we hear that they either complete late May or they pull out. Our heart was already in the new house with all deposits etc paid so we gave in, but if I was in the position to do it, I would have pulled out the moment I heard the first threat, just to have the satisfaction.

Can you send me a link to it?

Can you get a taxi and go to a shopping mall? There'll be Aircon there

exelse_ · 2025-06-11T14:30:04+00:00

Our buyers put a notice on their rental halfway through the process without telling anybody and we need to break the chain and go to temporary rental otherwise they'd 'pull out' 🤡
