General   (General discussion, talk about anything.)

Middle daughter buying an house off me and her indoors... Obviously at a greatly reduced price wishing her and her daughter and partner well. She has applied for and got a mortgage in principal. The sale is going through our solicitors who I have dealt with for 30yrs.
1. My solicitor requires I. D. from me and her indoors (Driving licence and Passport for both of us) due to money-laundering etc.. Done that...2. Daughters solicitor requires similar for her and partner... Done that.. Next..3. From my solicitor.. "why are you selling it so cheaply" have you been threatened.. Or otherwise forced or coersed to do this... Again money laundering questions.4... And bugger me if daughters solicitor ask same and require our I. D. and hand written letter from me and her indoors outlying same. To cap it all off I have to have ANOTHER mining survey done on the property... The previous 4yr old survey is attached to the solicitors deeds of the house... SCAM..
Having treated daughter... Son at home looking for a house... Which he has found in Orrell... We gave him a wedge as well the same amount to our daughters. And guess what.... Same rig-ma-roll as above case... Every bugger and his dog wants to know how a 25yrs old lad can afford it. More I. D. Producing and writing of letters to EXPLAIN his fortunate position. You can't give it away anymore without some person wanting to know the un's and out's of a Frogs Axxx.
