I have have many times advised people against purchases / mtg application after discussing the property state and its likiehood of meeting lenders requirements on survey .. and I would have thought most FA would have considered this point ( but some of the valuation is opinion rather than fact) but whether the FA has a responsibility to do so in the depth that I go is another question.
Maybe see it like a car inspection- AA may offer advice on loan and do an inspection for you
B2L mortgages ( that are based on rental income) are generally not for refrubs .. pre 2007 you might have had more slack from a lender, but lenders look at reasons to decline not accept
other avenues may have been available

maybe your route of finding an adviser was flawed? or perhaps like some people were looking a bit thro' rose tinted glasses at the property / rental market
