What is a Property Survey?

A property survey is a professional inspection of a property's condition carried out by a qualified surveyor. Whether you're buying your first home or a period property, a survey helps you understand exactly what you're purchasing — identifying structural issues, defects, and potential repair costs before you commit.

Having a survey carried out can protect you from costly surprises after completion and may give you room to renegotiate the purchase price.

What Does a Surveyor Do?

  • Carry out a thorough inspection of the property's condition
  • Identify structural issues, damp, and defects
  • Assess the roof, walls, floors, and major installations
  • Provide a detailed written report of findings
  • Highlight urgent repairs and future maintenance concerns
  • Offer professional advice on the property's overall condition

How Much Does a Survey Cost?

Survey costs typically range from £300 to £1,500 depending on the survey level and property size. A Condition Report (Level 1) is the most basic and affordable option, while a Building Survey (Level 3) provides the most comprehensive inspection and is recommended for older or unusual properties.

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about property surveys

The right survey depends on the age, type, and condition of the property. A Condition Report (Level 1) is suitable for new builds and modern properties in good condition. A Homebuyer Report (Level 2) is the most popular choice for standard properties built after 1900. A Building Survey (Level 3) is recommended for older properties, listed buildings, or anything that appears to need significant work.
A Condition Report is the most basic option, giving a snapshot of the property’s condition using a traffic light rating system. A Homebuyer Report goes further, identifying defects that may affect the property’s value and including advice on repairs. A Building Survey is the most comprehensive option, providing a full structural inspection with detailed analysis of every accessible element of the property.
The inspection itself typically takes between 2 and 8 hours depending on the survey level and the size of the property. Your written report will usually be delivered within 3 to 5 working days of the inspection being carried out.
Yes. If a survey identifies significant defects or values the property below the agreed purchase price, your mortgage lender may reduce the amount they’re willing to lend or request further specialist reports before proceeding. This can give you grounds to renegotiate the purchase price with the seller.
If your survey highlights issues, you have several options. You can proceed as planned, renegotiate the purchase price to account for repair costs, request that the seller carries out the works before completion, or in serious cases, withdraw from the purchase entirely. Your surveyor’s report will help you understand the severity of any issues found.
Survey costs typically range from £300 for a basic Condition Report to £1,500 or more for a full Building Survey on a large or complex property. The exact cost depends on the survey level, the size of the property, and your location. By comparing quotes through MoveEasy, you can save an average of £180 compared to using a surveyor recommended by your estate agent.
