She asked about asbestos, it’s a georgian town house with lath/plaster/later stud work and no artex. TBH i think most of this comes from her conveyancer rather than someone who knows about property
Agree. If she was a property expert, she'd be asking about horse hair and anthrax!
And you're right - the items she's worried about are very small beer in the land of shared freeholds.
Onwards and upwards.

Not sure about ‘early’ as I was there when she came for a visit with her father to measure up and they were very enthusiastic about the place, there was a couple of not insurmountable issues, one a sideUPVc window with no fensa cert (it predates it anyway) and we were going to indemnify insure that.
the 3 flat management LtCo had some changes where flat 1 owner dies and it’s in probate, (we met the 2 daughters and it’s been cleared cleaned ready for sale) new owner of flat 2 who we met and is now down as a director.
she said “answers to pertinent questions from our solicitor” and “ the changes in the management company” as things that influenced her decision to pull out.
think she’s in for a bit of a surprise with wherever she ends up next as there’s always small things like this but in our case there was no huge elephant in the room or the front of the building about to fall off, there was no issue with having the 3 owners manage the building, the only upcoming thing was the possibility of fitting a wired/wireless fire alarm in the communal hallway in the near future.

onwards and upwards.
