Hi Guys
Need your help on this one!!!
We've gone unconditional on a Home and Income which we asked for prior access to do renovations in the vacant house in the S&P. The vendor signed agreeing it but before it went unconditional the vendor wanted some insurance in place, we went unconditional anyway and the agreement was we get insurance for the renovations required satisfactory to the vendor. Our broker has taken all the necessary steps required in getting the insurance in place and the vendor is still refusing us access saying he's not 100% happy with the insurance. First of all has anybody had this happen to them and if so can they tell me what the outcome was.
Secondly we've asked for vacant possession as there is a tenant in the back house. The vendor should have given the tenant notice on the day we went unconditional, if he's given the tenant notice and we decide to settle early with the tenant still in place (say for about a week) is the tenant still required to leave under the notice the original vendor gave? or would we be stuck with this tenant and have to give them 90 days notice to leave? The vendor wanted to settle in the new tax year 7th April but has offered us early settlement of the 1st April with the existing tenant in place for a week. We don't mind bringing the settlement forward to the 28th March so that we can start renovations but only if the tenant goes when asked.
All advice would be appreciated!!
Many Thanks
Sharon
