Where the property is down-valued by more than 10% of the agreed purchase price.
-
Where the vendor withdraws as a result of issues identified in the property survey that deem the property financially unviable.
-
Where the property is deemed unmortgageable by a surveyor, subject to the provision of supporting evidence.
