Hi. This property has been empty for at least two years. It's being sold by a company. They are unable to tell us if the utilities are working and, although we're able to access the property with estate agents present (to get brief visits by tradespeople for quotes etc) they have so far refused us permission to access the keys ourselves prior to completion. We're asking again as we really need to get the house cleaned before moving in, before the furniture's all in ideally.
Just wondered if anyone has been in a similar situation before and has any advice on a smooth transition. Completion is looking likely within a few weeks. We have a toddler, and I am six months pregnant so don't want to move into an unliveable home (but I can stay with parents briefly if I need to!)
