Private 50's block made of large slabs of concrete. Apparently they're strengthened with steel which degrades and leaves air pockets in concrete.
We've gone with Natwest who are most lenient on property. Broker said we can look at other lenders but chances are the rates would be a lot higher.
Ultimately this won't be a forever home and if it's this hard for us to get a mortgage now, how hard would it be to sell in 5 years time? And how hard would it be to let a flat in blackheath.
With all that in mind we've revisited our search criteria and are now looking in SE1.

What's wrong with the construction? Maybe another lender?
