Buyer Solicitors Queries - FTB

I will be extremely thankful as English is not my first language so please can someone draft me letter so that I can email EA regarding the white goods, cupboards etc

Also until what time we can ask questions directly from vendor , through broker, through solictors and after that the deal is finalized and one can not pull out.

Thanks in advance.

Your first paragraph appears to have words missing.

You really should make the effort to read a book on the process. Or a short explanation here.
And no doubt many others if you google.

Sorry for my bad communication.


I want to email EA to ask how things are progressing on the sellers side and whether they will be leaving any white goods, cupboards etc.


Also can we arrange more viewing s to measure up as the floor plan dont have the exact measurements.


Are we allowed to view the property again ?



We plan to knock off the internal wall between the two reception room to make a big living/ dining room , redo the whole batroom so can we a builder with us to the property.


Sorry again for any confusion due to misunderstanding.


Thanks

i Suggest you are more "forceful" in a nice way.
Rather than ask "will you leave cupboard ?l write that "our offer of £X is dependent upon white goods (name them, eg washing machine dishwasher whatever) and the fixed / built in cupboards in rooms x y and z will be remaining. Please confirm this is the case"
Also, yes you can of course visit as often as you want until the seller gets fed up. . Just say what you've said there you need to visit again to take measurements and also bring a builder so you can get as estimate for some work you want to do please let me know what dates and times would suit the vendors.

Buying home is such a complicated process.

Today we received the papers from our solicitors(Motrgage information sheet , Mortgage Report and I think the most important document Mortgage deed is missing.

Rang the solicitors office and was told now the copy will be posted next week and our purchase transcation will not be delayed as still the seraches are being done and results are not back.
Will the duplicate mortgage deed cause any problem or the solicitors will print a new copy and post us.


Also please can someone explain me what is this designation "Trainee Fee Earner"

Thanks in advance

Are the sellers in a chain? (i.e. Do they need to buy another home to live in at the same time that they sell their current home to you?)

You can just email the EA and ask how things are progressing from the seller's side. If there is a chain, you can ask how that is progressing as well.

Do you want to ask the seller what they will be leaving, or do you want to tell the seller what you want them to leave?

Ideally, you should agree this right at the start. For example, "I'm offering £x for the property, which includes all the white goods and cupboards, etc."

However, you can either discuss this with the EA now, or wait to get the seller's "fixtures and contents" form from your solicitor.

The "fixtures and contents" form will say which white goods, cupboards etc the seller intends to leave, and which ones they intend to remove.

The form will probably look like this:

If you are unhappy with what the form says, you can 'negotiate'.

That seems reasonable, most people do that.

Again, some people take builders etc to view a property.

(There are no "rules" saying you can or can't do these types of things. It's a case of agreeing things with the seller.)

But many builders won't agree to do this. If you haven't bought the property, they think it's a waste of their time. And they may think you're only taking them to get a free survey.

It means that the person doing your legal work is a trainee (working under the supervision of a qualified solicitor).

This probably means that you were quoted a lower legal fee.

I have never found that to be a problem.

Thanks eddddy


For a detailed replly.


Looks like that trainee fee earner forgot to put the mortgage need in our envelope or its been lost by solicitors end.


Any implication other than late as Solictor said they will post the copy of the mortgage need next week.


Thanks again
