Property Surveys

For many buyers looking to purchase their next home, property surveys may seem like a needless expense. However, we believe it is essential to learn as much as possible about the property you are interested in buying before the process completes. Buying a new home is an exciting time and nobody wants to have to find and repair faults after moving in.

Surveys are extremely useful as they can flag up any defects that could cause issues further down the line. Some problems will only be noticed by the qualified property surveyor who is trained to identify them, so you may not be able to find them on your own. In most cases, addressing problems early can prevent more extensive repair works in the future. Not only could this save you time and money, it could also avoid unnecessary stress in the future.

There are several kinds of property survey available, and in most cases, it is up to you as the home buyer to choose if you would like to have them and which ones you carry out. However, if you have a mortgage on your property your lender may request certain surveys as a condition of the loan.

At Move Home Hub, we focus on three types of property survey: Building Survey, Homebuyer Report and Property Valuation Report. These surveys can identify a number of potential defects from structural issues to faults with central heating or electrical systems.

In addition to our online conveyancing service, Move Home Hub can facilitate fast, free quotes for your survey needs, wherever you are in the UK. Use the buttons below to learn more about the types of survey we offer and find out which ones are right for you!
