A couple of months ago there was a fairly major house fire in the house next door which has caused substantial damage to the front of their house. The house is rented and was, apparently, not insured correctly as the landlord is not keen to repair any of the damage.
The house looks pretty awful as the front was wooden and is completely burnt away and panes of glass in the double glazing shattered in the fire. Plaster gone and cracked bricks clearly visible in the integral garage below. We fear we will be unable to sell our own house (although it is not damaged) as it is now semi attached to the charred remains of next door!
Is there anything we (or the tenants next door) can do to force this along? We'd been hoping to sell as I am expecting DC4 soon and we are going to be a bit squished in this house!
It's a useful navigational aid (we just direct deliveries and friends to 'next to the burnt house' and everyone finds us!) but apart from that it is not of much benefit really 
Any advice gratefully received have tried googling but can't seem to phrase my question correctly!
