Aye. ms_com's work is picking up massively post maternity and furlough so that decided it for us. I can work anywhere in the UK, but she needs to be near HO.
I'm sure our survey will flag a load, just wondering what is going to be "this will make the house fall down/explode." Anything else like "it all needs replastered/rewired" we're kind of expecting

Yeah. Victorian house so we were aware of some localised damp and potential need for rewiring etc, but apparently there is penetrating damp, leaking roof/chimney, rising damp, and a multitude of other bits, so negotiations are imminent.
Vendor has already committed to a new build and is keen to get this sale done, so fingers crossed we can get the price down a good way.

And good luck with that!
House prices in NI are hard to ignore. We had an offer accepted on a 5 bed semi at £260k. Survey has flagged up a shit ton of issues. Like £40k. So now comes the hard negotiation...
