So I'm purchasing a 1930's semi that appears to be in good condition (to a lamen anyway). It's had a heavy amount of remodelling done this year (load bearing wall removal to open living space) that all looks to have been done to a high standard.
I requested a few quotes to get a building survey done, and I just received a call from one company who advised that I not bother with the building survey but go homebuyer. She said that since it appears to be good nick that the full structural won't add value and since it's non invasive won't really be able to uncover anything more than a homebuyer.
Should I listen to this advice?
