Simply put a party wall is a wall with a boundary within it. The below image shows a typical example of a party and in this scenario there are two properties which share one wall. The wall is therefore jointly owned by both parties and is thus a party wall https://t.co/GhsQ3qNYTk

Why have a building survey undertaken? A building survey aims to show you any and all defects that are present so far as it is possible to see them. A survey will literally comment on the building from top to bottom starting from the outside and then moving to the inside.

When should I appoint a surveyor?
This usually occurs after you have viewed the property and made an offer. The survey should be carried out before you exchange contracts as the report could mean that you renegotiate on a matter or even pull out altogether due to hidden defects.
