On the survey finding out from the residents, I knocked on the door, introduced myself (partly doing due diligence on the neighbours) and explained I was hoping to buy the flat. I am in a whatsapp group with 2/5 flats and the person who has lived there for donkeys replies to emails when I ask questions pretty much instantly. Howard's comment just got transposed into an email and this is what they said about mine.
Has anyone had experience adding in a fire alarm to a block of five flats? I do understand being off put by a yearly maintenance contract for a long time.
TLDR; paid for survey, other tenants seem pretty proactive and I am hoping I only will have to pay 1/5 of odd repairs and things as and when, and that nothing huge will be needed (e.g. new roof).
