That's a good enough deal for survey and valuation report in my opinion.
I know its only a tiny amount of money compared to the house cost and people will say for piece of mind etc, but what piece of mind would I get as I still won't really know if there are hidden problems
Are you not obliged to get the survey and structural report for your lending institute?
Personally I believe that if you are buying a fairly new standard house then the structural engineer will be unlikely to come up with anything you
won't see yourself. They don't do any destructive testing so it's hard to
see what they can come up with.
What gets me is the cost. As i understand it they do the job in less than an hour and 500 euros is a lot for an hours work. That's more than Pat Kenny gets.
Regardless I would be reluctant to depend on it as a substitute for having a builder/electrician/plumber friend give it an inspection as well.
