Valuation Surveys Essex

What does a valuation survey involve?

A valuation survey isn’t as detailed as the other surveys available, particularly a building survey which takes an extremely in-depth look into the condition of a property. When determining the value of your home, the survey will compare prices of similar properties in the local area, as well as carry out other research.

They will note down any obvious damage or defects that will affect the value of the property, highlighting visible issues such as dampness and electrical problems. However, unlike with other types of surveys, you won’t be advised on repair or maintenance work needed.

Is a valuation survey the same as a building survey?

No, a valuation survey and a building survey are two different things. Since a valuation survey estimates a property’s value to help you determine if the price is fair should you go ahead with the purchase, it only records its worth. It doesn’t assess the property’s overall condition or identify structural problems or faults.

A building survey is an in-depth assessment of a property’s condition, highlighting any existing or potential issues that require addressing. Both valuation surveys and building surveys are carried out by qualified surveyors.
