Thanks for the responses all - think its pretty clear now - although I genuinely didn't ask this question thinking there could be any legal issues - which I won't entertain.
I am still in the same situation now that my purchaser will potentially pull out as they have a liquidity issue - I have avised them to look for a 3 month refferal on the mortgage repayments.
Failing that being allowed - I had another thought - could I set the closing date at say Feb but hand over the keys in Dec (once contracts signed)?
This way there is no adjustment on the agreed value/purchase price, yet they won't have to pay a mortgage payment until Feb/Mar.

Come to think of it, and this is no help to you, it's a sad state of affairs for someone not to have saved the price of a couch or bed (let alone a deposit) and end up in a position to buy a place.
Why would that be? I listen to endless stories from people of older generations going on about how for the first 18 months after they bought their houses they sat on orange boxes and used dust sheets for curtains.
in reality how is it different to a builder of a new estate offering a free car with a house??? That's all legal and acceptable and it's to the tune of 15k beyond the 100% mortgage....
