Is it me or…

New to the buying process

Hello, just placed offer on property in Normandy which has been accepted! So now will be the waiting game and countdown until the final deeds are signed. So we wanted to put in a clause for Certificat d’Urbanisme (CU), has half of the building is barns and the rest is a house. So we wanted to make sure it’s possible to get the barns converted into one big house. Is it right in telling the agent to add this in or do we have to wait for sellers to select their notaire and tell them to add it on. Last email we got from the agents was they are now drawing up the contract, I’m assuming they mean the notaire will be? Just trying to get my head around who is doing what and in what order. As I don’t want them to turn around and say “you didn’t tell us so it’s too late to add it into the contract”.
