But don't shell out for a survey until you've had an offer provisionally accepted. And don't be afraid to change the offer, or pull out completely, if you're not happy with the survey once it comes back.
It's your money, and you don't want to be ripped off.

:j :beer: :T Just goes to show how overpriced the market is be it buying cash or on a mortgage. Had a look on zoopla.co.uk to see what they reckon the property is worth & its 6k less than what we have agreed on, so I can't complain much.
hoorah - well done :T0
