How a chartered surveyor can help
Chartered surveyors are often asked to value properties and examine buildings. During the examination of a property, a surveyor will check for structural problems, future issues, and any defects in a home. Surveyors produce a report so you can work out whether you are paying the right price for what you’re buying or not.
Depending on what the chartered surveyor says, you can sometimes renegotiate the price on the findings from their report.
using an independent chartered surveyor
Using a chartered surveyor is a great investment that could save you thousands of pounds in the future and years of hard work.
Ray Harriot, the founder of Reliable Property Group, has explained why using an independent chartered surveyor is so important.
Reliable Property Group was founded in early 2018 and covers everything from surveying to conveyancing and mortgages.
The group’s ethos is “reliable by name, reliable by nature” which has seen them garner a strong relationship base.
“When you get a mortgage, your bank will send someone round who is a chartered surveyor but their interest is just the value of the property,” Mr Harriot said.
“Not the structural integrity of the property.”
Mr Harriot commented on how Reliable Property Group and companies like them help Britons to make the right choice when purchasing a home.
