  • After all the hilarity of a few months ago my partner and I had an offer accepted on a place. Just had the survey back which identified slight subsidence. I’ve attached an image of the overall summary, the surveyor seems to consider it a “reasonable purchase”. This is the first time either of us have bought a house so would really value thoughts on this!

  • It's a big BUT at the end paragraph, and a large can of worms.

    You need to get an engineer to look at it really, as fixing likely wouldn't be cheep if it needs it.

    Then you'll have a quote for works and can chip the seller by that amount.

    Got pics?

  • Thanks for the input. The surveyor sent a lot of photos of the property in a doc but I’m on my phone so it’s quite hard to access properly. When I spoke to the surveyor he seemed fairly relaxed about it, that was before he sent the survey through but after he’d completed his report; I can give him a call tomorrow.
