@brockwell_local Bristol not London but I put an offer at pretty much asking price on this (https://www.rightmove.co.uk/property/79075989) which was 2 doors down from these flats. Flats looked well maintained but would rather not have them there, mainly due to parking or if they got converted into student flats. House went 30k plus over asking had a shit load of offers

My gf and I are in the process of buying a flat in Peckham. We had a relative who is a surveyor look at it recently for his opinion.
He advised against buying it and he said his primary reason for doing so is because there is housing association flats next door and that this could make it difficult to sell in the future/neighbours could be difficult.
It’s not something we’d even considered or thought would be a problem. The most we’d noticed was that the communal garden for the HA flats is a bit untidy, but tbh it didn’t bother us.
Is my relative right that HA flats as neighbours would put off future buyers or is he just being a bit of a snob?
