Which buyer?

[JadeFeather]

Hi
Just interested which buyer would you go for. One ha a mortgage in principle but is offering 5k less than the other who has a meeting arranged with the lender.
Thanks

I'd go against the grain and say FTB. Yes they might get anxious about the little things, to which I would just reiterate that it is sold as seen (if something not obvious is picked up on the survey then that is different). I can't believe someone would pull out of buying a house over some flooring.

In general a FTB is going to be much more invested in the property emotionally. I know of a number of people dealing with investors who have had a price drop the day before exchange for no reason, simply because the investor has more power in that situation.
