Seller lied to my face but i've finally found what I suspected

To me - why bother with commenting to a house viewer/buyer about what your viewpoints are as to whether one likes/dislikes them?

The buyer of my last house and all the other viewers havent the foggiest idea what I think about them/no comments have been made by me/my EA about them.

I told my EA what type of buyer I wanted if possible. My EA agreed with me. That's what we got - end of.

Yep...and my buyer was a household wanting it as a family home. There was the added (very rare in my part of the country) bonus that they were 'x generations local'. But my buyer hasnt the foggiest notion I "approved" of them. Why tell them that?

I think at this stage I'm reading into everything that has been said and done. I find it abit sick that he said he was happy the house was going to a young family despite him knowing we'd be stung on insurance and resale of the property and potentially have future problems for a house which is at the top of our budget.

I see a pattern emerging but I can't quite put my finger on it...

Are you just going to one insurer? Or are you using a comparison engine?

Corrected for you.

possibly thiss the vendor's last premium?

It may be worth shopping around to see whether other options are available for less. Does yourmortgage lender offer insrance? (also is that buildings only, or buildings and contents?)

That's the sellers current insurance. More than 5 times my current insurance.

I will almost certainly be backing out. Too many unknowns.

And YES I am listening to everyone putting back out!

Lovely. Have you actually tried a comparison?

I've had quotes varying by at least that much before.

Unless your current place is exactly the same as the new one that's a useless comparison to make.
