Match report*
-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
I have to agree that as a FTB I would avoid something needing that much work.
You can budget for the stuff you can see but it's the hidden issues that can really sting you.
