Why you need a survey or valuation
Buying a property for either personal use or investment purposes brings a variety of potential risks and possible hidden costs which you may not fully consider at the outset.
Property viewings are usually no longer than 30 minutes and only provide a brief, high level snapshot of the property you are interested in purchasing. There are many potential pitfalls which could be very costly if overlooked such as significant structural movement and cracking, timber decay and damp, the application of spray foam to the roof void etc.
In terms of the purchase price, you could be paying over and above the true property value which could put you at a long term disadvantage.
A professional survey undertaken by a chartered surveyor provides:
- A full inspection of all accessible areas including roof voids and sub floor voids.
- A thorough assessment of the properties current condition;
- Highlights key problem areas;
- Assesses property alterations and compliance with building regulations;
- Raises potential legal issues for your solicitor to review;
- An independent valuation of the subject property*.
- Checks for invasive plant species.
By having a survey carried out by a chartered surveyor you will be fully informed on all aspects of the property before you proceed so you can make an informed decision on the potential purchase.
*assuming the survey report with a valuation is instructed.
