I don't know what to do about this, I suspect nothing but I'm just so frustrated!!
We heard back about the survey done on the house from our buyers. The surveyor has threatened them with death from a lethal build up of gas in the chimney from a blocked flue and no ventilation, and said it's going to cost £4k to fix so they've pulled out.
The thing is, the chimneys capped off, all gas has been removed as the back boiler was replaced and pipework relocated and there's ventilation in the chimney upstairs, she just didn't bother to ask/look!
It's a blatant lie and it's caused our buyers to drop out. We've just had our mortgage offer for the place we're buying and all searches have been sent off so we're in a good place there and I really don't want to lose the purchase because of what's happened.
I'm so frustrated, angry, upset, disappointed and I don't know what to do. We put the house straight back on the market, I guess that's all I can do, but the surveyor just gets away with it. How is this right?!
She was vile to us when she was round. Nose in the air, nearly broke the window trying to open it (restrictors) and just kept tutting. Wouldn't even look at us or speak to us. It's an ex council house and she certainly made us feel like scummy shit on her shoe. Instantly knew the report was going to come back bad.
