Should You Get a Survey as a Cash Buyer of a Leasehold Property?

Question

I am a cash buyer. What should I do about surveys if it is a leasehold property?

Answer

Hi Caz,

Even though you are a cash buyer, you should seriously consider getting a survey done. For a leasehold flat, it's a good idea that any potential buyer gets a HomeBuyer Report.

You are spending a lot of your money, and you should take all precautions to ensure your investment is good. The surveyor will identify any issues such as damp, which may help you negotiate a revised price.

Good luck!
