Why mining and subsidence issues break sales here
An adverse coal mining report, a shaft within the search radius, or a property near a registered tip will often prompt a lender to ask for further investigation, and further investigation usually means the buyer walks.
Insurers can be equally difficult where there is any history of movement, and a house that cannot be insured cannot be mortgaged.
How we buy affected property
We buy with our own funds and accept the mining position as it is. No lender, no valuation condition, no further reports required.
Historic underpinning, a past claim or a current one does not stop the purchase — it is simply part of what we price in.
Sell a house with subsidence or mining issues in Merthyr Tydfil — FAQs
My sale fell through after the coal mining search — can you still buy?
Yes. Adverse mining searches are one of the most common reasons people contact us. We do not rely on a lender, so the search result does not stop the purchase.
The house has been underpinned. Does that matter?
Underpinned houses are hard to mortgage and hard to insure, which is exactly why they suit a cash sale. We buy them.
My buyer pulled out after the mining search. What now?
Contact us with the address and the search result. We can usually make an offer the same day and reuse the legal work already done.
