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.

Seller asking for a few days to move after completion?

Comments

  • The sellers are being tight and hoping to use you to save money. It needs to go into storage so they can pack up the days before completion, or they pay for a complete packing and removal service and look after the kids themselves instead

    once you've completed, it's your house. Why would you let strangers in your house ?
    Unless you charge them rent of course. £500 A week?. I bet they'll move then!
    Despite any possible humour meant, wanted to clarify this would be the worst thing you could do (just in case anyone took you at face value).
    I was joking 😉
    Which is why I mentioned 'humour' - unfortunately some people don't realise. Would hate for someone (now or future) to take that as gospel! :)
