Hi all, this is my first AIBU but I would love some advice.
DH and I have made an offer on a house, which was accepted straight away - it was on the market for £140k and we offered £137k. The vendors offered to include the White goods for an extra £400, which we agreed.
We've had the survey back which has flagged up a few bits and pieces - the kind of stuff you'd expect for an ex council house of that age. One is the boiler - it's clearly very old, and the separate water tank is not in good condition and needs replacing. The vendors have agreed to reduce the price by £200 due to the water tank.
The boiler hasn't been serviced since 2012, so I've asked for the vendor to service it before completion. They've refused. Was I unreasonable to ask? I'm a first time buyer so don't know much about boilers, although Ive been advised that they should be serviced annually. If we have it services when we move in, it will most likely need replacing.
