If you're buying, getting a structural assessment (Building Survey) of your property in Berkshire from a RICS Surveyor is key and can save you £1,000s by highlighting defects that can be shared or negotiated with the seller.
All too often, buyers choose not to get a Building Survey, thinking that their Mortgage Valuation will cover them for this. Sadly, the mortgage valuation doesn't highlight structural defects or risks.
Once you realise this and then choose to get a Building Survey you may find that you are pushed to get this done in time for exchange of contracts because you have waited so long. This is especially annoying as your conveyancing solicitor needs some of the information from the survey to complete your legal work.
The best advice for fast conveyancing in Berkshire is to book your Building Survey at the same time as you instruct your conveyancing solicitor.
Surveyors are in high demand at the moment and bookings can often take 7 to 10 days and then the report takes 3 to 5 days after that, so the sooner you book, the quicker you'll know if there are any defects with your property - plus you'll be set for a fast conveyancing completion!
