A clearer picture before you buy
Purchasing a home without an independent assessment can leave you vulnerable to unexpected financial strain. We conduct RICS Level 2 Home Surveys across Stretford to provide a clear, balanced evaluation of a building’s structural state prior to exchange. Our evaluations concentrate on significant visible defects, deferred maintenance items, and potential safety risks. Over 15 years, Chassen House Building Surveyors has gained extensive familiarity with the architectural styles and local building methods specific to Stretford, translating technical observations into straightforward, actionable insights.
Why a survey is worth doing early
A mortgage valuation exists solely to protect the lender, whereas our detailed inspection focuses entirely on your interests as a buyer. Identifying structural issues early gives you necessary leverage during price negotiations or allows you to budget accurately for urgent remedial works. Our building inspections identify common property defects early, allowing you to negotiate repairs or adjust your offer before completing the purchase. In Stretford, where market activity is fast-paced, having reliable diagnostic information gives you the certainty needed to proceed with confidence.
What you can expect from the survey process
We maintain a transparent and structured procedure throughout your engagement with us. Simply contact Chassen House Building Surveyors by phone or email to receive an initial estimate, which we then confirm in writing. We coordinate access with the property vendor or selling agent, requiring payment only on the day of the inspection. The RICS Level 2 Home Survey comprises a thorough physical inspection of all accessible areas, culminating in a written report designed to provide you with professional advice to:
-
make an informed decision on whether to continue with the purchase
-
take into account any repairs or replacements the property needs
-
consider what further advice you should take before committing to purchasing the property
Our service guarantee: All of our surveys are delivered within three to five days following completion of the property inspection. Each survey will detail and explain any problems found during our inspection. All information is clearly set out and completely jargon-free. We also offer a free telephone appointment after your survey report has been delivered to answer any queries you may have.
