Do I need a Property Survey?
Pre-Purchase Property Survey Reports are the best way to avoid unexpected repair costs after you move in.
The surveys we conduct are up to the SCSI Type 2 standard. (Sometimes called House Surveys, Structural Surveys, Building Survey, Engineers report etc.)
This is the most common type of survey for people purchasing a second-hand property and will give you a professional opinion on the overall condition of the property so that you can make an informed decision on whether or not to proceed with the purchase and sign contracts.
The survey will also answer some questions which your solicitor may have and are accepted by all banks and lenders in Ireland!
