Other than damp, cracks, boiler age, roof condition, presence of artex etc what else should we look for on a second viewing of a house before putting in a bit?
What things do you wish you'd checked for?
Also, what's a finger in the air price for getting a joiner (?) to put up a 6ft internal partition wall?

pointing, roof sagging, neighbours from hell

Take a friendly builder mate. There really are a thousand things to look at

Erm, a decent surveyor, then adjust the offer if there's a massive list?

+1 the surveyor.
Interior decor stuff is all fixable, and is a good bargaining point if it really is shabby.
For the structural stuff, either a surveyor or a reliable builder mate you can trust. And then get a survey done anyway.
