My husband and I plan to acquire our 1st property in Connahs Quay. Conveyancing lawyer has been appointed. The broker pointed out that a survey is not needed as the property was only constructed in 1997.
At the very least you should order a Home Buyer's Report. Given the property is more than ten years old the property will not benefit from a warranty, so you would be well advised not to take a risk. Where a property of this age shows no signs of defects a Home Buyer's report could be sufficient. The report should highlight any obvious problems and recommend additional investigation where relevant. Where there are any indications of material issues get a comprehensive Building Survey from the beginning.
