Am in the process of purchasing my 1st house in Brymbo. Conveyancing practitioner already instructed. The broker pointed out that a survey is not necessary as the house is only 20 yrs old.
As the bare minimum you need a Home Buyer's Report. Given the residence is over 10 years old the property will not benefit from a warranty, so you would be well advised not to take a risk. For a property that age with no signs of problems a Home Buyer's report could suffice. The report should highlight any apparent problems and suggest further investigation where appropriate. Where there are any signs of problems seek a comprehensive structural survey.
