Property Surveys are our speciality...
At CMF Property consultants we pride ourselves on giving you a first class property survey.Next time you need a property survey - visit CMF Property Consultants first!
There are two main types of surveys for residential properties the we offer:
- RICS Homebuyer Survey and Valuation (HSV)
The RICS Homebuyer Survey and Valuation (HSV) is designed as an economy service and varies on price depending on the purchase value of the property. It is intended for houses, flats and bungalows which are conventional in type and construction and apparently in reasonable condition. It focuses on essentials and is designed to highlight 'defects and problems which are urgent or significant and thus have an effect on the value of the property'.
The main aim of this service is to help you make an informed judgment on whether or not to proceed with the purchase by alerting you to any serious defects and to assess whether or not the property is a reasonable purchase at the agreed price.
- Building Survey
The building survey is more comprehensive than the HSV and includes extensive technical information on construction and the range of defects, major to minor. It is more suitable to properties that are Listed, older, constructed in an unusual way or properties that you plan to extend or alter. You pay more for this report due to the detail and time that is required and the price is based on the size, age and type of the property.
