It's a nice thought and I'll look into it but I believe the details carried a disclaimer, virtually invisible compared to the "Share of Freehold" headline at the top, but there nevertheless. Thanks for the thought though - what were the circumstances of your situation?
I think Halls were misled by their client but they should have checked the facts before advertising the place. Shoddy to be honest. Anyway, I've pulled out.
Halls of New Road advertised a 'share of freehold' flat in central Btn before Christmas and accepted my offer but £750 into the legals I discovered it wasn't An expensive waste of time.
