******* sellers suddenly decided not to sell property

[conned tractor]

Well, I think at the very least after bid accepted whoever breaks it up should pay at least 1-2% of value of property as compensation - it's totally ****ing wrong to just "change your mind" and have no cost. Bunch of

Happened to me twice the last time I attempted to sell my house. I even had a full structural engineers report on the back on the survey saying it was required to proceed. But that was mostly due to F00king waste of space surveyor. After this they changed their mind - if i'd have seen them in the street I would have swung at them.

The point is here that sellers changed their mind! Shafted not just me but also some other bloke apparently - estate agent too since I reckon he would have made most on actual sales of remaining flats

So who was the seller, a bank (as you appear to say in the first post of this thread) or a private individual, or 'other'?

Seller were receivers acting on behalf of the bank that had to repo whole new build few years ago.

You'd think by now they'd prefer to write off bad debt like this. I guess that's what proper bank would do - they are a building society

I'm just wondring if banks have wind of bad news coming our way. Conspiracy rumours are that a European bank has gone bust and Benny Hill says "extraordinarily serious and threatening" economic situation". Maybe banks prefer to be sitting on property at them moment rather than receiving your cash that will soon be worthless.

Do you need an investor? I've got 200k burning a whole in my pocket but you'd better be quick if you need it as I'm buying a house with it.
