Contact UsPre-purchase survey
one-page pre-purchase condition report
Many of our clients have benefited from our one-page pre-purchase condition report. This is a visual inspection of a property you’re considering purchasing, designed to help inform your decision on whether to proceed with the purchase.
This small investment has helped clients avoid high-risk buildings, saving money on conveyancing and further surveys. It also provides leverage to submit offers below the asking price, reducing initial investment and potentially lowering stamp duty costs. Alternatively, it can give the confidence to make a full asking price offer and secure the property with peace of mind.
