Top tips for a Burnham Home Buyers Survey


Burnham is a village in Buckinghamshire which has a contemplative order of Church of England Augustinian nuns which is based in the restored remains of an original 1265 Benedictine Abbey, and a parish church – St Peter (Anglican) – which dates in part back to the 12th century.

The village grew a little when the railway arrived in 1899 and has a mix of period, 20th century and modern properties. You can find large detached homes in Green Lane, Grove Road and Hitcham Road; some of these are Victorian, others are modern rebuilds sometimes in period style.

You can find 1920s-1950s semi-detached properties in Haymill Road and Chiltern Road.

New build developments include new flat developments in nearby Farnham Royal, among others.

Many of the towns and villages on the eastern edges of the county serve as commuter dormitories for London workers, such as Amersham, Chesham and the Chalfonts.

Is a mortgage valuation a Building Survey?

Many mistakenly think that a mortgage valuation is the same as a HomeBuyers Survey and the consequence is that home buyers can subsequently have to shell out money for repairing faults and defects that could well have been part of the bargaining process with the seller on purchase. The surveyor appointed by the lender conducts a mortgage valuation to estimate the value of the property: this survey is not concerned with detailing structural defects.


A HomeBuyers Survey lists and reports on defects and includes a full appraisal and valuation of your property in Burnham which is completely independent of the mortgage lender. This knowledge can be used to get quotes for the cost of fixing defects and, most importantly, gives you evidence which can be used to bargain with the seller about sharing any such cost.
