NOTES

property highlighting only those items which we consider will materially
affect value. It is prepared on instructions from The Building Society

a copy of which is available on request.
Valuers cannot see through solids or see things that are hidden by wall
and floor coverings. They will not move furniture or obstructions inside

go on roofs or fully enter roof spaces. Valuers will look at the outside
of the property from the garden and adjacent public areas.

be pleased to help you with this.
The valuer has assumed the property information supplied is correct although

In its present condition and with the current state of the property market
my
Valuation of the property is £170,000 |
|
| MATTERS AFFECTING VALUE:
In addition to items of routine maintenance and repair, urgent repairs
are required to the following:-
There is structural movement to the garage. You now need to get a structural
engineer (or chartered building surveyor) to make a detailed investigation
providing you with a full report identifying the cause, together with
the costs of the work necessary to ensure future stability. I cannot give
a valuation until I have seen the report.
External woodwork requires overhaul, repair or replacement.
Aspects of the service installations give cause for concern and you should
obtain specialist advice.
The garage roof is thought to contain asbestos material which may represent
a health hazard. You should instruct a licensed specialist to check the
property, as remedial work may be required. This work could be expensive
and may have to comply with legal requirements.
