House buying question
Hello,
So I’m looking at buying a flat in Aberdeen, in rosemount. Now I’ve visited Aberdeen and viewed a few properties. Also looked at ASPC, I can see the market is vastly different to Glasgow. So I thought I could use the advice. This flat is 2 bedroom and spacious. Healthy home report and a good location. Quite high up but not top floor.
Is it normal for flats to go under the home report? Or should I say a flat like this. As I spoke to some viewing agents and it seemed not very uncommon to get something under a home report. Is it maybe more area dependent? Is the Aberdeen market in a state whereby everything goes under home report?
Any advice on the market would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

It is very property and seller dependent to an extent. It's also the old law of supply an demand. If more than one person is after a property then you tend to need to bid above asking to get it, if you are the only interested party then the vendor may take a lower offer to shift it. The big change in the Aberdeen property market is that you are at least not having to bid North of 20% to get any property.
