hi there,
we are currently looking at purchasing a bungalow, so far so good until the mortgage got the valuation back with a valuation of £0
the guy that did the valuation said that Between 40 and 50 percent of the external wall areas are a single brick construction including the kitchen.
i went back down to see the bungalow today, as this didn't seem right to me, the main bungalow is all cavity wall, then there is an extension which is where the kitchen is and this has a flat roof
after doing some googling, it appears that the kitchen and extension have been constructed with an english garden bond.
Which seems all okay, and this would mean it is not a single brick construction ?
as i thought single brick construction would basically mean just stretcher bricks on top of one another.
we are currently disputing the valuation at the moment anyways, as a previous buyer had a valuation done, only a month before and this information regarding the wall was not mentioned at all, and the full asking price was recommended.
Just wanted to check if this was correct regarding the english garden bond not being single brick ?
many thanks for your help
