Many thanks for your responses.

When it comes down to it the bank will loan us the needed cash, as
long as we do the specialist investigations. I'm just trying to figure
out costs, to see if its worth it. With Edwardian properties, I'd
expect some of this work, its just there seems to be a lot of it for a
property that was priced =A335k over what anything else was sold for on
the street recently!


I'll see what the specialists have to say...

Cheers again,
