Possible problem regarding selling a house
Also posted to uk.legal. I'd be grateful for comments on the following situation. After 40 years in the same house, it's getting time to move on. Bringing up a family, which have now flown the nest, has taken its toll on the house, which is in need of a fair amount of redecoration. The back-boiler is 30 years old and won't last forever, and there are problems with the wiring: it suffers the 'green exudation' problem, and also when the kitchen was replaced two years ago the extra sockets and wiring that were put in might not meet Building Regulations and weren't certified. Rather than live in a building site for several months - as doing all the work at one time is the obvious solution - just to remain in an area we'd much rather move away from, the tentative plan is to sell the house, hopefully to a keen DIY-er, who can take on the problems, adjusting the price accordingly. What is the legal position regarding the wiring? I'm happy to be open about the problem, but I'd like to avoid the possibility of legal action being taken. Thanks for your comments. -- SeniorCitizen |
