Their not expected to do more but part of what they agree to is a moving in date ,so if they cant fulfil this then they should offer something in way of compensation if they want to keep the sale.

Yes it is a great read
Ok it maybe takes a few weeks for the under building and a shift to build the roof structure on the ground and a couple of months to finish but the actual kit takes one day to go up .

I have just ridden by a house that was burned down last spring and the rebuild has just begun, the concrete foundation is in already. The, to me, churlish thing is that the old burned out house that was built on a slab has just been swept aside and the new construction is going on amidst the rubble. I used to be in the landscaping game and this just 'upsets' me.

Y'see, this is where the government should have stepped in:
People need houses, and jobs (like, say, building houses).
Builders need things to build (like, say, houses), and people to build them, and stuff to build them with.
Pension funds need solid assets that bring in good returns (houses and brickmakers).
Brickmakers need people to buy bricks (builders).
Am I the only one capable of joining the dots?

Imagine UKIP came to power and somehow stopped immigration overnight. Without immigration the existing population would show a slight downward trend. What would happen to an economy so reliant on construction?

Well, obviously the dots that need joining up will change. So there's a need to be proactive so that all the dots that need joining get joined up.

British passport holders would have to do everything and there aren't enough people willing or able to do some of it, and think of all those people that would have to come back here, some of them are really nasty!

If you lot stopped getting divorced, and people like me started getting married, we would need far fewer houses between us!

Quite a lot of Cornish houses were made of "cob". It's mud really, and the walls are typically two feet thick with a thin lime render on the outside.
