Default Re: Sorting out house damp.

Regarding the damp and rot bit.....Wow, i'm surprised the mortgage company lent on this without first insisting that you get the damp survey and estimate. In all my years in property sales in london they insisted on this and would sometimes even retain some of the money till the work was done.
Its also a good negotiating tool for you as a buyer, if its gonna cost £3k for example, to get the work on then you could justifiably ask for £4-5k off the agreed price for the inconvenience etc you face whilst getting it done.
