What matters is whether a judge accepts that your surveyor was negligent which means that we cannot give you any hard and fast rules to determine whether your case will be successful or not.

Your surveyor will be deemed to have been negligent if the court accepts that your property purchase was overvalued beyond a level of acceptable tolerance. The acceptable variation is typically 10% and 15% between the original valuation and the retrospective valuation.
