We get asked this question a lot, when you view a property you normally have a very short time slot to make a decision on what is likely to be the largest financial investment of your life and you most likely won’t even get to see in the loft, let alone check for damp. Even when you buy a new car you get to take it for a test drive!

A survey will give you an in-depth report on the current condition and/or current value of the property prior to a legal commitment to limit the risks when buying your dream home. A surveyor will point out if there are any serious/urgent defects or risks that might affect the property.

A survey is a pain-free, cost effective way to avoid unpleasant and sometimes costly surprises after you have moved in. If the roof is leaking or there is damp, we are sure you would want to know beforehand.
