Understanding which surveys London buyers choose — and why getting the right level of detail matters.
James and Rachel were about to exchange contracts on a 1930s semi-detached in Lewisham. The estate agent described it as "well presented". Their mortgage lender's basic valuation raised no concerns.
On a friend's advice, they commissioned a RICS Level 3 building survey from our team. Our surveyor discovered extensive woodworm in the roof timbers, failed lead flashings and evidence of historic subsidence that had been cosmetically concealed.
Armed with our detailed report, James and Rachel successfully renegotiated the asking price, saving over £40,000. They completed their purchase with full knowledge of the repairs needed and a clear plan of action.
"Without the survey, we would have walked into a nightmare. The report was so clear — we knew exactly what we were dealing with." — James T., LewishamRead More Stories on Our Blog
