    Property evidence

    Property assessment

    Recommended next step

    Ask about the age and servicing history of the heating system.

    Oil-fired heating systems require regular servicing and tank maintenance. Understanding the system's age and condition helps you plan for running costs and any future replacement.

    What stands out

    • Previous sale fell through
    • Extended time on the market
    • Oil-fired central heating
    • Garage recorded

    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.

    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.

    What we couldn’t verify

    • Boiler installation date and service history

      The age and maintenance history of the heating system were not mentioned, which is common but worth establishing.

    • Roof replacement history

      No information about when the roof was last replaced or its current condition was provided.
