Further to completion of this matter on the 25th June, our clients have contacted us regarding the appalling condition the property was left in. Our clients have had to contact the Council to arrange for three wheelie bins full of rubbish to be removed. A letter had been delivered to the property dated 25th April to tell the owner that the wrong rubbish had been placed in the wrong bin so that it could not be emptied until the rubbish had been sorted.
There is a large pile of wood to the right hand side of the garage, bits and pieces of old furniture and wood still within the garage and what looks like asbestos sheeting from what was perhaps an old garage roof at the back of the garage. Three photographs evidencing this are attached. There is also a photograph showing two old doors propped up between the coal bunker and the garage. There is a chest of drawers in the third bedroom whilst the garden has been used as a dumping ground for buckets of cement or sand mix, old bits of worktops and
various other rubbish.
As well as dealing with the Council, our clients have to hire a mini skip to remove the rubbish and will have to pay a specialist firm to remove the asbestos.
Your clients are clearly in breach of their contract by failing to provide vacant possession of this property on completion.
Our clients rights against them are reserved. Our clients estimate that the cost of dealing with your clients breach will be £528.75. Please arrange for your clients to reimburse ours direct for this additional expense. If they are unwilling to do so, our clients rights against them are reserved.
Yours faithfully
Scary sounding stuff. Let's see what happens..
