Remote/Keys to Open Electrified Gate To The Garage Not Handed Over Upon Completion
Comments

I wasn't given the fob to open the electric gates at my apartment block to access the carpark.
The previous owner was not forthcoming with the missing fob when contacted by her solicitor. She used another solicitor in the same firm as mine, and the estate agents had no luck either.
I had to send off for a new fob at a cost of £50, which was then reprogrammed. I got advice as to which fob I needed from the company who did the yearly maintainance check on the gates. Apparently the generic ones were not suitable.Not Rachmaninov

The trouble is that they may well ignore you. Do you then sue?davilown said:

What did the contract say about handing over the keys?1

It’s covered by question 14 of the TA6 form. At least it is for English transactions. The seller confirmed that all keys for doors and windows would be provided, assuming they ticked the yes box. If they ticked no, I don’t think that the sale would have gone through.user1977 said:What did the contract say about handing over the keys?The form is incorporated into the contract.No reliance should be placed on the above!
