    A bit off topic but looking for some advice. Our valuation is booked in for next week and we have a survey being done next week too. The estate agents seem confused and said it’s unusual to have both a valuation and a survey as anything major would be flagged up in the valuation? This is my first house buy and I thought we’d need both but I don’t want to waste money if it’s unnecessary! 

    Valuation = value of property
    Survey = condition of property

    Did you not upgrade your valuation to a home buyers report or full survey?
    No, we had already booked in a homebuyers report with an independent company which I thought was the right thing to do. It’s just the estate agent making us doubt that now

    One declaration to sign which was a error of my MA cutting his details off during transfer and that’s all the underwriters have requested from us 🏡

    Yes, we just have to send one form which is a declaration not a document and its one they already have but the MA details were cut from the bottom. Valuation will be instructed tomorrow 🥂

    Honest everyone needs to stay positive trust your MA bluestones seem to get the job done 😉
  • We have an offer, however now we have an issue with the help to buy. We have the old scheme in place which has been extended until May. Bluestone want us to have the new scheme and use that, we don't understand why? Everything is already in place to complete and exchange and now this 😔
