So...we accepted an offer on our house several months ago & accepted a lower offer price on the basis buyers would sell & rent for an extended period while we try to find a property (we have long tick list). They love our house & seem adamant they intend to buy it. Quite a few months down the line we still haven't managed to find anywhere & buyers now want to renegotiate the price down by 10k to cover their (now unexpected) additional rental costs. If we agree they will carry on renting & give us more (unspecified) time to come up with the goods without hassling for a while. They are obviously more motivated to buy than we are to sell, ergo: we still can't find anything suitable & indicators are now showing house prices will probably be on the rise. We are therefore concerned that if we accept a reduced price & house prices then rise we will end up with a shortfall when looking to buy & will be priced out.
AIBU in saying 'go away' - you are being cheeky & we aren't paying your rent; either stay with the deal if you're that desperate or walk? Or do you think they've been exceptionally patient, we should bite their hands off & go live in a tent?!
[[If mods want to move this to property that's fine - just thought would get more visibility here lol].
