    Plan b for those with savings

    BBC News - Consumers being misled over quick house sales, OFT warns

    Malcolm Haywood, from Lincolnshire, wanted to sell his house quickly, and agreed to a sale price of £120,000.

    But just before the deal was signed, the company involved, Gateway Homes UK, dropped the price to £80,000.

    Pat Hardy, from Teesside, signed a similar deal with Tom Craven Property.

    She had agreed a purchase price of £75,000, but the day before the removal men were due to arrive, they lowered the offer to £40,000.

            Now we know where the Double Glazing salesmen & Agents went to die.

            seems the sellers solicitor wasn't doing his job.

              I suspect these firms are "helpful" and can appoint a solicitor to manage the sale for you "at no extra cost!"
