We are desperate to buy a house but it has a small amount of Japanese KW
visible We know about the risks getting mortgages etc
We sent photos to a couple of JKW firms who confirmed it was JKW
I told them as it was growing out of the housewall into the garden we were concerned it was in the foundations. They said unlikely but the paving next to the wall would need to be pulled up.
Our sols who is experienced with JKW cases apparently advised us to get a local RICS surveyor to survey. Why a local one? Is that relevant?
According to the ROCS site you would still have to get a JKW company in to treat it so why have a Survey?
This all seems like another money making racket
