The estimate to complete a sale is approx 16 weeks for a leasehold property at the moment Kazz. Hopefully, because this is a cash buyer it could speed things up but I'm already wary. The flat was reduced to £70,000 and we've taken £59,000 so quite a substantial discount. The agent phoned yesterday to ask if we had an electric certificate. We haven't but everything was renewed 13 years ago. The buyer wants us to go halves on the cert (£126). I've said no, but we will pay half of any work needed. Not a good start

It's not that I really object to paying for one, it's just that if it falls through again it's another wasted expense with nothing to show for it.
They haven't even got a solicitor yet so warning bells are clanging
