Thanks Shelley its the part of selling a house I hate. I know it will need rewiring but the couple already know that Ive been totally honest with them about that thats why we have let them have the house for the price we have. The surveyor should value the house 20k higher than we have sold it for as we dropped the price so the stamp duty would only be 1% not 3%. please keep your fingers crossed!! Our mortgage application has gone through ok Ive got all the paperwork from the solicitor to complete this afternoon and to get that back to them.
weve started the first round of decluttering Ed went to the tip yesterday with a car full of stuff but i think we need to go through what weve kept and be ruthless!!  Bren Help!!!! 658515 Bren Help!!!! 658515

Hi Jude

Now that im feeling a bit more like myself  Bren Help!!!! 434936 
What type of survey is it a home buyers or a structural  Bren Help!!!! 300576 
We had both done on our old house the homebuyers took 5 and a half hours  Bren Help!!!! 517699  and the structural i was told took 3 and a half  Bren Help!!!! 658515 
The home buyers is a really thorough survey that points out all the faults in the house so the buyer knows the condition of the house they are buying   Bren Help!!!! 910222  It highlights urgent repairs that need to be addressed asap Bren Help!!!! 910222  it also includes the valuation   Bren Help!!!! 910222    we had one of these surveys done on this house   Bren Help!!!! 910222   As you have seen by my photos this house flagged up quite a few faults  Bren Help!!!! 658515  but most of them were only cosmetic  Bren Help!!!! 910222   the only reds were the glass in the doors because it isnt safety glass Bren Help!!!! 583730 and a leaking shed roof so its not as scarey as it sounds   Bren Help!!!! 583730
Our mortgage offer came through within a few days of the survey even with a few reds and ambers flagged up   Bren Help!!!! 910222    
At a guess I would say its more than likely going to be a homebuyers  Bren Help!!!! 910222 they are the most popular   Bren Help!!!! 910222 
Ask the surveyor what type of survey it is when he rings   Bren Help!!!! 300576 
The structural is more expensive and its usually carried out if theres a chance of structural defects   Bren Help!!!! 517699   has your house been underpinned or are there any visable cracks that might be worrying the buyer   Bren Help!!!! 300576    We had a structural in our last house because it was over 250 years old and had been underpinned so we wanted to make sure there hadnt been any further movement  Bren Help!!!! 517699 
Im sure everything will be fine   Bren Help!!!! 910222  but dont panic if anything is picked up   Bren Help!!!! 583730  atleast your buyers are aware that the house does need some work doing to it so it wont come as a shock   Bren Help!!!! 863498   
 Bren Help!!!! 43464  everything goes smoothly and they get their mortgage offer quickly   Bren Help!!!! 502966

When the surveying company rings to arrange the appointment ask them what type of survey is being carried out  Bren Help!!!! 910222  they will tell you and let you know roughly how long the survey will take  Bren Help!!!! 910222 
Because the market is picking up i think surveyors are really busy atm with the average access call taking over 2 weeks  Bren Help!!!! 575435  thats what i was told when we sold our house anyway  Bren Help!!!! 517699  There arent as many surveyors that are qualified to carry out the big surveys  Bren Help!!!! 583730

well he was only here about an hour and a half. It wasnt the BIG survey that I was expecting. He was a lovely bloke and told me everything at the end.  Bren Help!!!! 658515 

He said there was nothing in a house of this age that he wouldnt have expected. He will be flagging up that the roof is original, doesnt need replacing just yet but will eventually, it needs rewiring but the couple already know that the plaster work at the back is a bit unsightly and could do with being renewed but isnt urgent.
The only thing he did mention which is concerning me is that the ceiling in the dining room which is the original ceiling is some sort of board which originally will have asbestos underneath, perfectly safe as long as its not disturbed.....I never knew that! I know the couple are going to knock through i really hope this doesnt put them off. Ive just spoken to our friend and he had his done when he had his rewiring done.
The surveyor told me not to lose any sleep over it as he has been to 3 bedroom houses in our street that have been sold for the same price as our 4 bed but im worrying about this ceiling now!

I would speak to your agent and ask them to let you know as soon as they know the couple have a mortgage offer  Bren Help!!!! 910222 

It is a very stressful time  Bren Help!!!! 170113  and you will stress out until you know your buyer has a mortgage offer  Bren Help!!!! 910222  its only natural  Bren Help!!!! 610864 
from what the surveyor said id feel alot happier  Bren Help!!!! 910222

The couple are lovely they are coming this morning with their builder friend. Im saying nowt about the surveyor but Ed has said worst case scenario we will pay to have the ceiling done.

They are living with her parents so common sense says they could stay there a couple of weeks longer until the work is done when we move out. Im never ever doing this again!!!!!

Bren Help!!!! 910222  if they ask just say the surveyor was very nice and seemed happy with everything  Bren Help!!!! 910222 

I bet the builder will know the type of ceiling it is  Bren Help!!!! 910222  and mention that to the couple  Bren Help!!!! 910222 

Yes i think if you want to move badly enough sometimes you have to think about paying out a little for things that are picked up  Bren Help!!!! 910222  but  Bren Help!!!! 43464  that this isnt the case

Most of our ceilings are artexed and were flagged as possibly having asbestos in them but we are going to get them all reskimmed

Have you had the one your buying surveyed yet  Bren Help!!!! 289342 or are you waiting to make sure everything is ok with your house first  Bren Help!!!! 289342

The husband knows the surveyor as he works for the building society. They did ask how it went so I told them ok and that he did say that i shouldnt lose any sleep at night. We have spoken to our friends who had the same problem flagged up on their survey as they moved on the same estate as us 2 streets away they had it tested and there was no asbestos there so Im keeping my fingers crossed.

The survey on ours was done last wednesday the surveyor told the estate agent that it had been done out beautifully and there were no problems.
