Buying a home can be one of the most expensive purchases in your lifetime. It is essential that you are aware of the condition of the property and that you are paying the right price.

Many buyers rely on their mortgage valuation report as an assurance that the property they are purchasing is in sound condition, when in fact, the report is not a survey and is solely carried out for the lender, who is only concerned whether the property is suitable as mortgage security.

Despite this; many homeowners proceed to purchase without having a proper survey and it is then too late to negotiate the price. Once you have exchanged contracts, the only person paying for repairs is you.

We will help you navigate your way through this process and ensure you're getting a service that is right for you and your circumstances.
