Delivered by specially trained
and fully accredited residential property surveyors, your Home
Condition Survey gives you a plain English, jargon-free report on the
condition of the property using a simple 1,2,3 rating guide, so it is
easy to understand any risks or unforeseen expenditure that could
crop up.
What does the
Home Condition Surveyor look for?
The Home Condition Surveyor will
be looking for property defects such as structural integrity,
unstable walls, failing roofs or unsafe chimney stacks. The surveyor
will also be looking at for issues with the construction materials
used, dampness, quality of services, planning, rights of way and
other access issues, health & safety and boundary issues and any
ongoing maintenance problems.

comprehensive survey produced by a professional, trustworthy
residential Surveyor.

Condition Survey?
Some people rely solely on their
banks' mortgage survey, but a mortgage survey is designed only for
the benefit of the bank. The mortgage survey is designed to inform
the bank that the property is worth the amout they are lending you,
not what you paid for it.

Condition Survey in Chessington cost?
