Estate Agent & access to keys

They sound like timewasters anyway. If they didnt pull out now, they would probably do with a week to go, or come up with some reason for you knock loads more money off. Is probably a positive thing they arent buying
Agreed - They are legally entitled to pull out for any reason they choose (which makes me wonder why they have to make something up). To be honest, I'm less bothered about the withdrawal of the buyers (which, having now reduced the price, could quite possibly lead to getting a new offer at 10% more than theirs), and more about the fact that the estate agent has given my keys to prospective buyers, with all of the risks to my property that this entails. I feel this is an unacceptable breach of trust.
Ok, if it's not about noise then it's because of some other unknown reason, which you still can't say is because they happened to have the keys.1
