This is to keep it a safe and useful space for MoneySaving discussions. Threads that are – or become – political in nature may be removed in line with the Forum’s rules. Thank you for your understanding.

PLEASE READ BEFORE POSTING: Hello Forumites! In order to help keep the Forum a useful, safe and friendly place for our users, discussions around non-MoneySaving matters are not permitted per the Forum rules. While we understand that mentioning house prices may sometimes be relevant to a user's specific MoneySaving situation, we ask that you please avoid veering into broad, general debates about the market, the economy and politics, as these can unfortunately lead to abusive or hateful behaviour. Threads that are found to have derailed into wider discussions may be removed. Users who repeatedly disregard this may have their Forum account banned. Please also avoid posting personally identifiable information, including links to your own online property listing which may reveal your address. Thank you for your understanding.

    told them not interested in a survey and have even told my solicitor to do the searches but not to wait for them if it means slowing it down

    I'm assuming that you are a cash buyer, as any property bought with a mortgage must have the relevant survey and searches carried out as required by the lender
    I'm a retired employment solicitor. Hopefully some of my comments might be useful, but they are only my opinion and not intended as legal advice.

    meeting the owners will not happen

    I do prefer to speak face to face, not that solicitors will have it, they tell you to avoid contact at all costs, rediculous

    hopefully we can sort something out

    edit - no mortgage
