Hi Karen and Ian,
We have just gone through the process of buying a cortijo just outside of Albox, it wasn't the first house that we liked.
We previously fell in love with a place in Arboleas, which on the face of it, needed a bit of TLC. We had a survey done that uncovered a lot more and that would have ended up costing us a small fortune.
We moved on and found our forever home following another survey by the same chap. He was very honest and thorough and not overly expensive.
As Jan states above, agents want to sell properties and most, not all, don't care once it's sold. I would definately not jump in and buy without having a survey done.
I can PM you the details of the surveyor if you like.
Good luck,
Tony
