Ensures Provided Safe Home

With the present state of the market, it can often stretch our finances to the limit to buy the house we want in the area we want to be in. We often need to cut our budget in order to afford our choice of ideal home, and the last thing we want to do is have to spend further money on fixing unexpected problems. With this in mind, a Home Buyer report or Building Survey report is a worthwhile investment, as it could save you from much higher costs later on.

As a leading building surveyor in Slough, our advice to property buyers is to contact us to discuss the different types of reports and surveys we can undertake for you. A common misconception is that it is part of the Estate Agent’s responsibility to sell on condition that all faults or issues with the property have been dealt with. This is not the case. In fact, it’s very much the responsibility of the buyer to ensure that they are aware of any matters affecting a property before they agree to buy.

At face value a building survey or home buyer report might seem like it carries a high price. In reality, they are usually something we deliver for less than 1% of the value of a property, and can help you avoid having to spend far more addressing an existing problem at a later stage. As we are RICS associated and accredited surveyors, you have the assurance of knowing you’re working with the very best. If there is a problem, we will find it and report on it accurately and swiftly.

In many respects, it may be best to view our comprehensive building survey reports as being similar to the MOT for your car. That test gives you a third party, objective report which shows your car is safe to use. Our building survey reports deliver the same for a house you are looking to purchase, making sure you are well aware of any potential problems likely to affect it.
