my mum is buying a flat in a 5 storey 1960s block
How can I find out if the block needs an EWS1 form?
Unless the building has been retrospectively cladded or significantly altered It's unlikely.
Main issues with 60s flats is that many are concrete construction and beyond their service life. As yours is five stories it's probably brick type?
my mum is buying a flat in a 5 storey 1960s block. It'll be a cash purchace so no need for a mortgage. How can I find out if the block needs an EWS1 form? obviously it wouldn't prevent this purchace but it would affect value.
