    -deceased estate, not been lived in for a few years. Will take them 8 weeks to go through the legal stuff to then be able to complete.
    -the above point makes it more likely that next doors extension was illegitimate. Can't see anything on council planning website
    -boiler 1 year old (wanted to keep it heated the estate agent thought)
    -electrics fucked
    -could not feel any active damp
    -could not get to loft (tiny hole in bathroom roof)
    -floors felt solid
    -interior needs full works
    -estate agent reckons it'll get asking price and advises if I'm going to make an offer to do it by cop tomorrow
    *Lots of this is info from agent to be taken with a pinch of salt
