The short answer
Identify deal-breaking risks early, before paying for surveys, legal work, or mortgage fees.
The costs of a failed purchase aren't really about the property, they're about how far into the process you were when it fell through. Front-loading the risk checks means a deal-breaker costs you nothing to discover, instead of thousands.
Why this matters for your purchase
This is the kind of thing a PropM8 Scan is built to show you early, before solicitors, surveyors or lenders are involved, while walking away still costs nothing.
