One of my family is looking to buy a house as a PPR
One house that seems good value is currently rented out. Obviously vacant possession would be a must.
However, if an engineers survey was done today (if possible to do a full survey in a rented house) what would need to be put in a contract to have a comeback if the tenants damaged the property between the survey and when they move out.
The problem as I see it is that, even if the condition of the house is fine today, if the owner gives notice to the tenants (assuming there is no problem with this etc) there is no guarantee that the vacant house will be in the same condition as it currently is. Can this be got around ?
