...did you get gas and electrical safety checks done? I've got an idea this was compulsory under the old HIP packs? Certainly we did it when we sold last in December 2011. It cost I think about sixty quid and took the inspection bloke an hour or so. Most surveys will recommend you get it done before completion, I gather.
Just asking because vendors on place we're buying now are refusing point blank to do it, which seems a bit random. They're not in residence at the property, but they've got local estate agents with keys working for them, and we haven't so it's a right PITA for us to organise it.
Maybe we're just mugs for doing this sort of thing as vendors ourselves. We've always had rented flats professionally cleaned before we've left them as well.
Buying is horrible, isn't it.
