I will shortly be paying a booking deposit of 8000 for house that I intend to purchase. The agent said that they wont take it off the market in case the sale falls through that they will take details of any vested interest in the property. Should I request that it be taken off or what's the norm? Thanks
 
There is no legal obligation until both parties have signed the contracts.

Many purchasers change their minds, so it's reasonable for the seller to keep his options open.

But it's normal practice for the estate agent to change the sign to Sale Agreed and you should request that.

Thanks Brendan does that mean that I should request that it show sale agreed on the internet also?
 
I thinks so, yes.

It's probably also worth asking a friend to phone the estate agent after about a week to ask about the house.
