The Checklist

What should you look for when choosing a Chartered Surveyor to recommend to your clients?

Prompt and professional response - enquiries should be dealt with quickly, because delays at any stage of a transaction can have consequences.

Direct access to the surveyor - your client should be able to speak directly with the person carrying out the inspection, both before the survey and afterwards if they have questions.

Fully qualified and experienced - technical expertise and practical experience are essential when clients are making significant financial decisions about property.

Clear communication - survey findings should be explained in a way that enables clients to understand the issues identified and make informed decisions without any alarm or confusion.

A strong understanding of the property market - the surveyor should appreciate the pressures and timescales involved in a live property transaction and work professionally alongside the other parties.

Control – knowing your clients are in the trusted hands of your recommended surveyor gives you peace of mind and ultimately allows you to keep control of your sale.

Would you be confident putting your own reputation behind their service – it is not about the quickest or the cheapest – it is about quality and service.

“Adams Kaye are proud to be supporters of Alexander Lyons, who have provided surveys to our clients over many years. Their comprehensive reports are naturally beneficial to our clients but what is helpful to us is being able to ask questions on matters that arise out of the report, so their reports are of great assistance to us too”
