Buying or selling in Widnes with knotweed in the picture

What to ask, what lenders expect to see and how to stop a Widnes sale from falling through.

Buying or selling in Widnes with knotweed in the picture

A valuation that mentions knotweed need not end a sale, but you want the paperwork ready before exchange.

If you are buying

Ask the seller for the management plan, treatment records and guarantee, and check that the guarantee can be transferred to you.

If there is no plan yet

A survey establishes the extent of the stand. A programme can then be arranged so the lender has what it needs to proceed.

Quick answers

Is it reasonable to ask for a lower price?
Many buyers do, citing the treatment cost set out in the survey.
