* Are there signs of water damage (i.e. peeling or bubbled paint work, mould,

* Are there cracks in the walls, which could be an indication of subsidence?
* Is there any fretting (cracked) brickwork that could indicate major structural
problems?
* Don’t forget to walk around the outside of the home to check fences and the
condition of the building’s exterior including gutters and downpipes.
