One of the most common conversations in property happens after a survey.
A buyer agrees a price.
The survey confirms the house needs updating.
The buyer asks for a reduction.
But what if the property was already priced to reflect its condition?
There’s a big difference between a hidden defect and a known issue.
The challenge is knowing where that line is.
If a property needs work, should that already be reflected in the price?
