Everyone Wants Investments Security
The building surveys conducted by our team are some of the most comprehensive that exist in the industry. Particularly recommended for older structures, these inspections look at every area of the premises that is accessible and help you to get a proper picture of its current state. Useful whenever you’re aiming to either purchase or sell a property, we can provide an experienced building surveyor in Slough to take a very close look at it.
Purchasing a home is a lengthy and expensive process, with the additional time added on by surveys seeming like a costly extravagance. However, not having them done often results in what’s called a false economy, an apparent saving that in actuality leads to further expenses. In addition, there are a host of other reasons as to why you should have some form of survey performed.
If you happen to be buying with the assistance of a mortgage, the lender will generally ask for a basic survey to be done to determine the value. This is so they can decide if lending is viable and how much they will lend. The lender is just looking to protect their own investments and the reports are unlikely to feature too much useful information for the buyer.
Building surveys are far more extensive than those conducted on behalf of mortgage providers. This provides you with a huge amount of information so you can protect your investment. You’ll be able to learn far more about the condition of the property, any problems that need urgent repairs, and even estimates for the cost of this work.
The fact that mortgage providers have a survey done to protect their interests should encourage you to do the same. After-all you will be the one left with any unexpected repair bills in the future. Neglecting to have someone come in and investigate a property can lead to potential issues becoming very real and costly ones.
