Hello there,
I have just been looking at a victorian semi-detached house that interests me although I did notice that on the detached side there is a very slight bow in the wall about half way up. There are no windows on this side of the property, just an alley way. The house is built on a shallow slope and the bowed wall is to the lower side. I noticed that many of the houses around here have those metal cross-like or round plates on the walls to keep them together, the house that interests me has none.
Is this a big problem? Should I steer clear or is this no big deal? I'm not sure what to do and I'd appreciate any advice.
Thanks,
J
