Obtaining a property survey from Countrywide Surveying Services will highlight any serious issues before you buy and could help you save £1000s.
Relying on a mortgage lender's valuation is a risky strategy. A valuation only provides a top level review and is not designed to provide a detailed condition and advisory report.
Employing the services of Countrywide Surveyors will ensure you are fully aware of any problems, allowing you to account for repairs and decide a reasonable purchase price before your commit to the property purchase.
