A SURVEY OR VALUATION is the best way to reach an informed decision on a major important investment like property purchase.

This is the way you can minimise the risks and come to an informed decision before you are committed to purchase.

The time to find out about the faults is before you buy

There are so many points to be considered.

• Is the price right?
• Are there drawbacks I don't know about?
• Is the finance available?
• Will the furniture fit?
• Can the deal be tied up quickly?

So many questions in fact that the most important of all is often overlooked!

Is the property sound?

Your solicitor can advise on the legal aspects of your purchase but only a survey can reassure you of its physical condition.

Compared to the purchase price and the cost of repairs if things go wrong, the cost of a survey and valuation is minimal.

Many buyers find the initial outlay is repaid many times over if unforeseen defects are found.

The time to find out is NOW - BEFORE you buy

You then have the option of finding alternative accommodation or re-negotiating the price to take account of repairs.
