Residential Building Surveys in Harrogate, Wetherby, Leeds & Yorkshire

One of the most important roles played by building surveyors or chartered surveyors is in conducting building surveys on residential properties prior to their purchase.

In most cases, the acquisition of a residential property is the largest financial commitment a person will ever make. The buyer is therefore strongly advised to have a thorough building survey undertaken before making any acquisition.

The Importance of Residential Building Surveys

Building surveys provide the purchaser with a detailed report on the condition of a property, flagging-up any costs of repair. This impartial report allows for a balanced judgement to be made on the price and suitability of a property. 

Although building surveys are suitable for all properties, they are especially important for buildings that are:

• Older and/or listed
• Unusual or non-traditionally built
• Dilapidated
• Extensively altered or extended
• Having known or suspected problems

Properties with these characteristics are more likely to have condition problems that need to be highlighted.
