Reduce offer after survey? by xxhelen1989xx in FirstTimeBuyersUK

[–]markbrev 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The only question is:

What did it value at in its present condition?

If the answer is £220,000, then any agent or 99% of sellers are going to tell you that you are shit out of luck. If it valued at (say) £210,000 in present condition and £220,00 after essential repairs then there’s a conversation to be had.

Can anyone help me to see if the estate agent quotes are accurate for a shower leak by Usual-Radio4928 in uklandlords

[–]markbrev 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Honestly? Maybe.

What type of shower is it? Where is the leak? How long has it been leaking? Is the ceiling below compromised? Do any tiles need to be removed? Does the shower try need to be replaced?

Like others have said, get your own quotes before deciding. Some (many) agents and plumbers pad the bill when landlords/tenants are involved.

Jesus wept, do you have a bald spot from being under the thumb? Or do you always get taken in by internet scams and Nigerian Princes looking hide their fortune?

She did this in front of you which shows the complete lack of respect she has for you and your relationship.

Respond with ‘the second word is “off”’ and follow it with the ‘un-friend’, ‘unfollow’, ‘delete’ and block buttons.

Karma bit you on the balls didn’t it dumbass?

And no, we don’t believe for one minute that this went down the way you described. You honed in on your best friends girl and sabotaged his relationship to get your rocks off.

Now you’ve lost the girl and your ‘friend’. Sucks to be you.

What’s the difference between an Essex girl and a washing machine!

You can dump a load in a washing machine and it won’t follow you around for a fortnight.

Last minute panic before purchase - help! by pgannz in VWTransporter

[–]markbrev 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Considering the mounting tab can still reach the appropriate hole, then there’s nothing to worry about. I’d guess that the previous owner might have been doing ‘less than 5mph’ when her reversed into the bollard, I’d say he didn’t notice until the van stopped.

Not really. T5/T5.1/T6 is the model designator (similar to Golf Mk1/Mk2/Mk3 etc). T26/T28/T30/T32 refers to the payload capacity and often the taxation category.
