That seems a fairer way of doing things tbh. In the case of the first buyer pulling out of my house sale i would have got some compensation as we had our completion date. | |

Basically you put in an offer subject to certain conditions, like a satisfactory survey and valuation, clear searches, seller having good title etc. | |

AK & Fee had to pull out on one because they made an offer based on survey but offered more than the survey said it was worth & couldnt get a mortgage on it & the seller wouldnt negotiate. That might happen now & then if folk dont do a survey 1st but generally once you agree make an offer you close the deal.............pulling out because you changed your mind is just gay!! | |

I think you can still pull out from a purchase in scotland however it rerely happens!! | |

yeah agreed.....not 100% sure bout how it is in Scotland but i think once you agree a price it is binding so you get compensation if they pull out. I'm sure AK, Fee, colin etc will be able to verify this? | |

TBH the house buys should have to put a deposit down when they place an offer. Atleast then if they do pull out then you get some money back to cover fees. | |

Cheers mate. Its really shit as it costs me money everytime someone pulls out as my solicitors still need paying for the work they have done. That HIP thing comes in soon too so that will be another 600 quid i've got to spend. | |

Buyer number 2 just withdrew their offer yesterday so my house is back on the market yet again. couldnt believe the one from yesterday, i accepted their offer last friday and then less than a week later they pull out coz they are getting a divorce and can no longer afford it. Load of bollocks. i'm seriously gutted. |
