Are you all signing together with a clause suspensif for his benefit in respect of PP? You will be completely tied to selling to him if you sign first (no cooling off period for the seller). Better he signs before you or you sign together. Then the question of price doesn't come into question. Please email me if you need further clarification.    Report

Thus there is no neccessity for a termite report, as any local Notaire will confirm.    Report

Thus speaketh an estate agent. John I was trying to explain why I had never had a refusal to buy on diagnostics alone. I count myself as an extremely professional estate agent. Not quite sure what you are implying John.    Report
