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.

I wouldn't pay a solicitor to write a letter. Just enjoy using them."If you think it's expensive to hire a professional to do the job, wait until you hire an amateur." -- Red Adair0

Just use the table n chairs. If they do come back for them, let them take 'em, if not they're yours . . .0

If they come back for them you will have to hand them over, on the other hand you can (technically) charge them for storage and disposal.
If you want to do things by the book you will need to have your solicitor contact their solicitor, who will write to them detailing the disputed items and what they consider their status to be. They will have to write back confirming this, which will eventually be fed back to you, if they reply.
This is really what your solicitor is for to advise you on, and should be your first port of call if you have a query about a property you have just bought; rather than an internet forum.0
