I am currently selling my house. We have signed contracts with the buyer and the deposit is paid. The contracts were signed without being subject to survey. Once the contracts were signed we then signed a contract for our new dwelling and paid the deposit. The buyer then brought in a surveyor to look at the property. we checked with the solictor and they said we should allow the buyer to do this.The buyer passed the surveyor report to us. Having read the report it is ridiculous. we have just had our central heating system checked by an engineer and the surveyor report claims they are badly corroded.And the house needs upgrading from a c2 Ber to a c and this will cost in excess of 4500. Now the buyer has come back asking for a price reduction. When I consulted our solicitor, they informed us that they cannot advise us on this situation and didnt want to know. We are not using an estate agent and are getting no help from our solicitor and am wondering what our next step is
