Yeah, if it’s only to satisfy planning permission condition then it’s no bother. We install proper ones as a selling point.

Worse than planning its a building reg now apparently. If building a house for yourself but not got a leccy car id rather just pre wire for future. Happy days if outdoor socket suffices.

That’s what I did with my old place, fitted a big cable capable of being a charging point while the place was gutted then had a double socket on the end.

When I bought mine 17 years ish ago we made the seller put a £1500 bond down as I wasn't overly convinced they would complete the deal.
My solicitor was shocked when I suggested it i was happy to offer the same. He said let's see if they ask in return 1st. They didn't so sale went through with my fees protected

I’ve had a sale not complete after exchange….. guy was a full on chancer and just didn’t have the funds to complete - I even gave him 3 months extension and allowed him to rent it off us in the meantime - he got kicked in the dick that’s for sure, I don’t like messers!
