you cannot arrive at a conclusion before starting and finishing seems to me an easy answer and logical... and most probably what you have worked out for yourself ... so no basically .. would be my opinion

having read all your questions about this problem ...have a slight feeling you have most probably already paid money over and are now trying as the problem came out via the mortgage checking system to work out some way of not losing what you have put down...

plus have noticed in another posting that you really like the place so you seem to be struggling to make it all work..

a lot of the answers given here are misleading because a lot of people do not keep up with new rules... also each case is hard to judge from afar and without all the papers available plus the condition of the actual building...

if this is to go ahead ... i reckon ...you need to stop double checking vague promises made to you by what sounds like the house selling people and get yourself a definite legal and independent helper... get them to check things for you and then listen to what they say... and finally be fully prepared to loose what you have put in already rather than try and go beyond your budget to force it through... it could end up making you hate the place at the very least..

basically you have been had in a sense... and its only professional independent on the ground legal and building advice that will be able to tell you how much this is all going to cost ...which could be 1000 or 10,000... so all your probs could vanish ...hopefully if the lower cost.....
