In which case, if you have cellars and outhouses and things, and haven't checked them, for god's sake do it now ... we were poised, ready to move into brisingamen/peake towers when I opened the cellar door, and promptly instructed the solicitor to instruct the owners to empty the crap out the cellar before we signed on the dotted line. It literally filled the whole cellar. During their 'renovations' (and bodging a punctured radiator with putty would have been the least of what they would have attempted), they'd hurled all the builder's rubbish/stuff into the cellar until it filled the whole place to the top of the stairs. It required a skip to get it all cleared out.
And even then they left us with an almost sitting tenant. Admittedly, they couldn't put her in a skip, but ...
