Fantastic experience. Phillip Chapman did my survey. Always answered any emails I sent and got the report back very quickly within a few days. The report is very detailed too. Highly recommended.

Initial reaction on reading the report was to pull out of the sale as I thought the house a complete lemon! On second reading I decided I needed to speak to the surveyor and I'm so pleased I did. He was really helpful in helping me focus on what I might find most relevant and putting some meat on the bones of some of his comments. He concluded that if the work was undertaken it would be a nice sound property. I used the report to help me renegotiate the price in order that the seller contributed to the things that were regular maintenance issues. I realise that things have to be brought to your attention to cover their backs, but the report made for very scary reading, I'm glad I didn't go with my gut reaction as I'm now looking forward to getting into the property and doing some work to make it my forever home.

Fantastic service from Richard at CWH Surveyors! Not only was the survey comprehensive, but he also took the time for an in-depth post-survey call to explain the findings. He even highlighted specific areas to draw our solicitor's attention to. Highly recommended!

SURVEYOR SERVICES WOLVERHAMPTON

As well-established Chartered Surveyors specialising in residential property in Wolverhampton, and neighbouring regions, we provide a variety of professional services to support your property transaction requirements.

RICS Home Surveys in Wolverhampton

Buying a house or flat represents a major financial commitment; it’s likely to be the biggest investment you’ll ever make. Our independent home surveys are tailored to help you obtain a thorough understanding of the condition of the property you are considering, enabling you to make a well-informed decision on how best to proceed. Industry statistics over the years have repeatedly demonstrated that commissioning a comprehensive survey can save you thousands of pounds in unexpected repair costs down the line.

RICS Level 2 Survey (also known as a RICS Homebuyer Report)

An economical method of securing all the essential information you require. Results are presented in a standardised format using clear, accessible language that ensures you can easily comprehend any defects identified. From the roof to the property boundaries, we’ll conduct a site inspection to evaluate the overall condition of the building’s fabric. A Level 2 Survey is best suited to contemporary properties of conventional construction that are in a satisfactory state of repair.

RICS Level 3 Survey (also known as a RICS Building Survey)

An exceptionally comprehensive report following a meticulous internal and external inspection of all accessible areas to deliver an in-depth assessment of its construction and condition, along with our recommendations for remedial work. A Level 3 Survey is especially recommended for older properties (including listed buildings), larger homes, unconventional constructions and buildings that are in poor repair or have been extensively modified.
If you’re uncertain which home survey is best suited to your property needs, please get in touch and we’ll be happy to provide guidance. Refer to our handy guide which is available to assist you in selecting the appropriate survey.

RICS Property Valuations

As RICS Registered Valuers, CWH Surveyors are perfectly positioned to deliver independent valuations for residential properties in Wolverhampton and further afield. We routinely carry out expert valuations on behalf of private individuals and businesses for various purposes, from establishing the current market value for a residential property as an asset to helping resolve disputes concerning a property’s worth. We also provide:

  • Private treaty purchases and private sales
  • Probate and inheritance tax
  • Divorce and matrimonial matters
  • Accounting valuations for business development or reduction
    Equity purchases, Right to Buy and Help to Buy valuations

Our valuers will examine the overall condition of the property, its size, construction and location. Utilising our knowledge and expertise of the local housing market and area, we’ll value the property in relation to comparable properties in the vicinity, reaching a reliable figure that is accepted by many official bodies including HMRC.

Expert Witness Property Reports

Where a legal dispute has emerged between two parties, CWH Surveyors are routinely called upon to provide expert witness evidence to assist in resolving property valuation disputes. We possess extensive experience in the preparation of Expert Witness Property Reports for all manner of issues relating to residential properties, such as:

      • Family and matrimonial disputes
      • Building surveys, building defects and professional negligence
      • Rental valuations and housing disrepair
      • Dilapidations and landlord & tenant compensation
      • Capital valuation disputes
      • Business disputes

Typically, our expert opinions are required in connection with court proceedings, alternative dispute resolutions, mediation and similar situations. We are exceptionally well practised in preparing Expert Witness Property Reports for use in numerous situations and in full compliance with court rules.

Frequently Asked Questions

When should I instruct a surveyor?

A surveyor can be instructed at any point throughout the purchase process. We would encourage clients not to leave it to the last minute, to allow time for any further investigations to be carried out.

What type of surveys are there?

We conduct the RICS two main levels of survey, Level 2 Home Survey and Level 3 Building Survey.

Isn’t a survey carried out by my lender?

There is often a misconception in this regard. Where mortgage finance is involved, the lender will appoint a surveyor to carry out a valuation of the property to ensure it is suitable security for lending and is worth what is being paid for it. This is principally to protect the bank and in some instances it may take the form of a desktop valuation. It will not provide the buyer with a detailed assessment of the property’s condition.

Do I have to arrange the inspection appointment?

Our experienced administrators will make all the necessary arrangements for the surveyor to inspect the property. This will include liaising with the estate agent and seller to reduce stress on our clients behalf.

How long does a survey inspection take?

Inspections typically take between 2 and 4 hours dependent on the age, size and condition of the property, as well as the type of survey. We will spend sufficient time on site to ensure a detailed and thorough report is produced.

How do I instruct a surveyor?

To discuss your survey requirements, please feel free to contact us here.

How quickly will I receive my report?

Following the survey inspection, the completed report is issued within 4-7 working days, allowing time for reflection on our findings and ensuring the report is accurate.

What are the benefits of a survey?

Our survey is designed to provide a buyer with a comprehensive overview of the condition of the property they are purchasing and allowing them to make an informed decision. It is there to assist with the decision making process so that they can proceed to purchase in confidence. Where issues do exist, it will identity the issues and provide context regarding the urgency of repairs to ensure that any significant defects can be costed before committing to purchase.
