We have just moved into our new house and discovered that, despite the estate agent's details stating that there is a radiator in the loft conversion, there isn't. In fact, there is no heating up there at all.
Luckily, it doesn't really matter as we only need it for storage and the occasional guest at the moment, but in the future it may become a 'den' for the dc or an office for dh, so some heating will be needed. And, regardless of that, the details were wrong.
I mentioned this to a colleague and they said that we ought to 'sue' the agent as they have misinformed us. Seems unlikely to me but thought I would look into it. We only viewed the house once and it was fully furnished, besides, you don't really look around checking basics like that do you - or should you?
It hasn't made us regret our buy, whatever happens, but, since the agent was not exactly a joy to deal with and they have made a mistake, I thought I would check this out.
Thanks.

Is it true that estate agents have to pay if their details were wrong?
