In the middle of buying a house and specialist survey has flagged that the septic tank does not pass the regulations that came into force this year. Sellers do not want to do the upgrade work themselves, and will not agree a price reduction for us to do it. We do not want to buy a house with an illegal septic tank and feel like they should sort this out pre completion, and we feel even going 50/50 is unfair as by law they should have done this already.
