Was it not premature to be selling all your furniture when missiles haven’t been concluded? 

If you have used Google AI for the above statement, don’t necessarily expect it to hold water. 

It holds as much hot water as the average colander.

OP, what prompt did you use to get that result from Google? I have no idea in which jurisdiction there's an implied obligation on parties to negotiate a contract "in good faith" (or what you think was bad faith here, if there simply wasn't a chain formed because your sellers couldn't find something to buy in time). If you still want to buy their property, make an offer.

The seller may also be liable for the buyer's costs. Relisting the property after withdrawing from a sale, especially if done without notifying the buyer, can create legal complications and could be seen as an attempt to leverage a better deal. 

While sellers can relist a property, doing so after pulling out of a sale, especially without informing the buyer, can be problematic. It can be seen as a breach of good faith and could lead to legal action.

That’s what Google says so I dropped my solicitor an email so say what they think. 

AI is not very reliable, I’m afraid. It has misled you. 

Are you expecting your solicitor to answer your question for nothing, or do you expect him to bill you for dealing with it? 

No you are right maybe the AI in Google badly advised me it says in Google £300 to answer an email feel a bit worse now?

Yes it’s a bit tricky as they said they definitely wouldn’t sell at the time and we have since done renovations to existing house and I would worry the sale could fall through again

Are you saying theirs was the one and only house you would ever buy, and you no longer wish to sell yours? If you are selling anyway then surely your renovations and Home Report etc are costs you will be incurring at some point?

I know the OP is looking to take some action against the vendor here, but missiles might be an overreaction...

No i had tried to buy other houses in same street but offers wasn’t accepted and it went on a couple of years and after having one accepted and sale falling through I decided not to go ahead selling. I don’t drive so I couldn’t be sure other options so had to stay close to public transport links

They only have buses on one street in your town?

Not as such but the bus route lacks new builds and many other new builds have less bus service as they are on edge of town. And yes it was and build I was after.

So it said 

AI Overview

In the UK, it's legal for a seller to pull out of a house sale before contracts are exchanged, even if they haven't informed the previous potential buyer. While there may not be legal penalties, the seller could face fees from their estate agent and solicitor. The previous buyer can't force the sale to proceed, but they may be able to claim back some costs like legal fees. 

My question i promoted was seller relisted house after pulling out without telling previous purchaser
