Surveyor in Okehampton
Buying a property is a momentous investment decision. Not only could this be the largest single financial transaction you are ever likely to make, but your home in Okehampton may also well be your biggest asset.
Having identified a suitable property, it’s important to ensure that it represents a good investment. To that end, you need accurate, reliable information regarding the age, condition and construction method of the building you’re thinking of buying.
Problems with the building such as dampness, dry rot, subsidence, roof defects or other structural problems may not be visible to the untrained eye. However, the existence of major issues will substantially affect the property value, or in extreme cases may put you off proceeding with the purchase altogether.
This is where the professional advice of a reliable building surveyor in Okehampton may be very useful. The best way to ascertain to what extent your shortlisted building is worth investing in is to commission a property survey.
A survey will not only protect you from any nasty surprises cropping up after you’ve moved in, it can also act as a valuable negotiating tool to achieve a lower purchase price.
