Hi, Am currently considering buying a 3 bed, new-build terraced house. I have engaged the services of an engineer (recommended by a work colleague) to carry out a structural survey of the building and snagging (including checking that snag list items have been completed). He has given us an estimate of €500 to carry out the above work. The house is a 3-bedroom terraced structure of around 96 square metres. I have no objection to paying someone to do a good job but my impression is that €500 is excessive for the above work? Bear in mind that I'm new to all this. Would appreciate any comments. Thanks.
