You would be best advised to commission a Home Buyer's Report. As the property is more than ten years old the property will not come with 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 may be enough. They will highlight any obvious problems and suggest further investigation if appropriate. If there are any signs of problems seek a full Building Survey from the beginning.
