Thanks Y Man.
We'll probably rethink buying right now and wait until October so we don't have to rely on anyone else. It means letting this place go, but hopefully something else will come along.
Ta guys, this has given us a lot to think about.
Tubs, she is an older lady who is selling because the maintainance is becoming a bit much for her and she wants to move closer to town, but she doesn't seem to be in any hurry as her son is staying with her for a couple of months.

Hi folks,
Let me start by saying we're going to get actual legal advice, but I just wanted to get some experienced views beforehand to see if we're barking up the wrong tree.
My husband had been declared bankrupt before we met and the first house we bought both the house and the loan went...
A few things to look at...
Some sewerage/septic systems are better than others. Some require regular maintinance from the company which can really add to the cost. Some actially run the rish of contaminating the groundwater you have. The benefit of some is that you can recycle your greywater...

Hi,
