Worth checking
Reason the previous sale did not complete
A sale that falls through can have many causes, including survey findings, mortgage issues, or buyer withdrawal. Understanding why helps you assess the risk.
Why the property has not sold
This property has been on the market for an extended period. The listing history is worth discussing with the agent to understand how the sale has progressed and whether anything has changed.
Age and condition of the oil tank and boiler
Oil tanks and boilers require regular servicing. Confirming their age and inspection history helps you plan for maintenance and replacement.
Extension or conversion feasibility and planning requirements
The listing suggests potential to extend or convert part of the property. This is not confirmed — check feasibility, any planning constraints, and whether formal planning advice has already been sought, before factoring this into your decision.
What to prepare for
Ask the agent or solicitor what caused the previous sale to fall through.
Knowing whether the issue was survey-related, financial, or procedural helps you assess the risk before committing.
Confirm feasibility with the local planning authority or an architect before relying on any mentioned extension or conversion potential.
Mentioned potential does not guarantee permission would be granted or that the work is achievable as described — independent confirmation protects you from assuming space that may not materialise.
