I will have to watch this later as I haven't got my ear phones and our lass is watching the tele.
Anybody watching Nishikori vs Murray in the US Open?
Murray was cruising beginning of the 4th set them just lost his head he's moaning at everything he just started moaning about a butterfly going past him
he looked unbeatable the other night..Just goes to show how important confidence and mental attitude are in top level sport..
A classic example of the silent majority being in the right place at the right time.Well said that man.
White girl in a "girl power" tee shirt seemed a bit out of place.

Why?

You what's bollocks. Buyers having to pay for survey's and sellers not needing to, by law, disclose structural problems.
Sellers should pay for the advanced survey and they should be available to read. Instead of being allowed to try and con people hoping they do s basic search.
Jack built the property.
Subsidence. Riddled with asbestos in all the roofs, the ground level floor was uneven and the full thing needed to be rebuilt from scratch. The walls were all weak as ****. Planned on doing it on 10k - 12k. In reality we would have had to put 20k on them numbers.
I only had a quick chat with the guy, mate. His report should be through next week. ****ing gutted doesn't cover it.
He's done a canny thread, I think. If he doesn't want to do it, then it should be no pressure. All he has to do is ask for help.
Its good. But typical of this board. Reliant on others to do threads.
I should really check the board first before posting such ****e
If only all members thought like that mate.
I was under the impression that if he couldn't do it and/or doesn't have time because of work/gigging etc then I'd happily do it.
I got my mate to walk about that house this afternoon. He's the best builder I know, there's nothing he can't turn his hand too. He said for a starter the surveyor has went to far just to cover himself, he said most houses built before 1980 will have asbestos somewhere, but there's no way he could have been able to tell in one day. Do you know anything about that? I know nowt about that.
Watching the Manchester derby with my kid, on Saturday, so going to speak to him then and try get him back onside. Our mate has guaranteed me the house isn't half as bad as he's made it out to be, and he can sort everything within budget.
The mandatory survey is there for the bank to assure that the money you're borrowing from them is recoverable in the event that you can't repay your mortgage.
I'd say in this instance the bank may decline to lend the money against this property if their survey has deemed it to be in such a bad state.
If the bank is still prepared to loan the funds in spite of these issues then you must have knocked the vendor down a lot on the offer.
