    At the moment I am more concerned about the inside of the flat. The freeholder is Gateway Housing, and I generally trust them as regards fire safety etc. Gateway has a strong leasholder`s association and their external maintenance and decoration seem decent enough at first glance, so I am hoping that services and stuff in the communal areas will be looked after well. In addition my solicitor did some searches that OK'd access to services if repairs are needed.

    The flat being just 50 sqm I reckon there isn`t much that can go wrong. Right now I am cosidering scrapping the extended survey and isntead focus on the following:

    • An electrician to do a Periodic Inspection Report.
    • A damp engineer to reassure me that there is no water getting in under the tiles in the batroom etc.

    How does this sound to you? Should I consider anything else? Gas, plumbing or similar? All advice appreciated
