[QUOTE="General Melchett, post: 1109530, member: 74895"] A 14 day cooling off period obviously wouldn't work but it's a pity there isn't a 'try before you buy' concept when it comes to buying a property given how big of a deal moving house is and how long it takes to sell if you feel compelled soon after moving in. A couple of half an hour viewings is unlikely to reveal issues like noisy neighbours. I would never buy property in England again until the process is overhauled. The whole chain thing is such a nightmare and the fact that you can't relax until contracts have been exchanged (which is typically towards the end of the process) is so flawed. It's almost like the process is designed to line the pockets of conveyancers, surveyors, estate agents and of course HMRC. It's no wonder people say property buying is one of the most stressful things to go through. [/QUOTE]
