Surveyor: The buyer engaged me; the seller paid my fee. The seller asked me to omit that the extension lacks consent, a request the code allows. I put it in anyway, because the buyer had made her offer conditional on the extension being lawful. His request settled nothing on its own.

Which one of the following principles most helps to justify the surveyor's reasoning?

AA surveyor paid by one party and engaged by another should disregard any request from the payer the code does not allow, and record every defect, bearing on the decision or not.

BA surveyor should honour the payer's reasonable request to leave a finding out, unless the party who engaged her asked in terms to be told of it.

CA payer's request to leave a finding out does not by itself excuse the surveyor from stating a finding the engaging party's decision turns on.

DA surveyor should tell the payer at the outset which kinds of finding she would report to the other party.

EA surveyor may include a finding only where the engaging party made the transaction conditional on the matter it concerns.
