Someone that I know had a full survey on a house that they had agreed a price on. The survey found a front wall was cracked due to a nearby tree causing subsidence. The vendor was contacted and agreed to get the repair carried out under their still existing buildings insurance policy. £5K repair completed they then completed the purchase and moved in.

Get a proper survey done.
Recently sold my house,we had a fairly large patch of damp under one of the upstairs bay windows.
The house was valued, and put on the market with the damp patch visible.
It was putting people off so we had a damp survey done that estimated the cost of the repair. Around 3k.
We knocked 5k off the asking price to take this in to account.
We had a couple of offers of well below asking price, complaining about the damp was the reason given by the agent.
We took it off the market, sanded down the wall repainted it and put the house back on the market.
It took about 24 hours to then get offered the asking price.
So the moral of the story is, don't be upfront about any damage you have. Hide it.

Don't know what they're called bow but the full survey cost about £800 last time I saw. As i say, worth it on an old gaff, especially one that's not been looked after well. Plastic electrical trunking all over the house?

Well worth paying for a proper survey on an old house....the basic one tells you hardly anything. If you do find even the slightest problem you can leverage on it to get the price down by at least the value of the survey itself.
