Why Have a Survey?

Direct Surveyors' homebuyer surveys, homebuyer reports, property valuation reports and building surveys are undertaken by Independent RICS Chartered Surveyors. They are designed to highlight any significant defects that could affect the value of the property you are buying. After reading the report and talking to our surveyors you can decide to

• Investigate issues raised in the report before exchange of contract
• Re-negotiate the asking price before proceeding further
• Proceed with your purchase
• Withdraw your offer and continue your search for the right property
