Lender rejected after survey .... London New Build

One thing I will say is that if the asking price was 650k and none have sold, then the asking price was too high.
I'm not totally clear if you are buying a house or a flat? You talk about a new build house, then flats later on and I don't quite see how if this is a new build it seems to have some sort of legacy gym already there?0 -

Lots of commercial spaces around London are being converted in to residential blocks and being marketed as 'new-build' apartments, I'm guessing it's something like this.
This type of thing, it used to be a large insurance company.

The EA will tell you almost anything to get there commission. The surveyor did a good job. The non residential property has the potential to limit the resale of your flat.
It is up to you whether you proceed with the purchase and a broker may be able to put you in contact with a lender that would be willing to provide a mortgage on the property.0 -
