Mortgage Valuation
A Mortgage Valuation and a Survey are two different things that are often confused with each other.
A Mortgage Valuation is a basic assessment of a property carried out by a surveyor on behalf of a lender. Its primary purpose is to provide the lender with an estimate of the value of the property so that they can determine how much to lend to the borrower.
A Survey though is a detailed inspection of a property that is carried out by a qualified surveyor. It is typically more in-depth and comprehensive than a mortgage valuation. A survey is often recommended for older properties, properties that have been extended or modified, or properties that may have structural issues.
If you feel getting a Survey is right for you, it doesn’t have to be complicated; we make it as straightforward as possible with a hassle free service enabling a surveyor to be booked within minutes.
Whether you are a first time buyer, are looking to move to another property or are a property investor, our surveys help you better understand the condition of a property to avoid surprises. They give you confidence to proceed with your purchase and/or negotiate the sale price. We put you in control.
