I'm about to move in to my PPOR, settlement date is 28 September next Friday.
I contacted the RE agent to arrange pre-settlement inspection to be held this Saturday afternoon due to my full time job (I can't inspect during weekdays I told her).
The RE agent came back to me saying the owner insists the pre-settlement inspection to be done the day before the settlement day which is next Thursday (27 September) at 1PM or 5PM, which is not possible for me due to work.
Should I insist to inspect this Saturday or is it okay to go with what the owner wants, do the inspection on next Thursday?
I heard from my friend, he said pre-settlement inspection better be done at least 1 week before the settlement day, so that if there's some issues with the property, we can report this to our solicitor and take some action (i.e. renegotiate/reduce the purchase price).
I have to get back to the agent in the next hour or so.
So all the wise/experienced men on this forums, please give me some wise advice
