Valuation Survey

I believe this has to be completed before a house can be purchased, do these surveys advise of the value of the property and is it possible to pull out of a sale if the property is valued at less than the agreed price?

Thanks

    Yes.
    and is it possible to pull out of a sale if the property is valued at less than the agreed price?
    Yes, or you could renegotiate the sale price.
