I found a house that I really like but I am not sure whether I should go ahead or not. The homebuyer report reveal a high damp meter reading and the damp specialist confirmed that it's a rising damp - 3 main walls on the ground floor. I got a quote from the specialist and the vendor has offered to cover 70% of the cost.
It's a mid terrace house built in the 50s.
What would you do if you were me? Am I going to struggle with damp and end up spending a long of money in a long term? I am a ftb and anxious about making the wrong decision.
Thanks for your help
