Top tips for a East Horsley Home Buyers Survey


East Horsley is a very affluent Surrey village in an area of substantial woodland and some chalky lower slopes of the North Downs. Housing is detached in the vast majority of cases, outnumbering any other type by at least 9:1. The parish church of St Martin's is a medieval church.

You can find grand thatched roof houses which are pre-Georgian in Pennynead Drive, stunning new Georgian-style mansions in High Park Avenue as well as houses built in the 1930s and detached bungalows in The Rise.

Properties in East Horsley which are located in close proximity to the River Wey's and the Mill Tail's tributaries, channels and feeders, in streets such Oaklands Drive and Kingston Avenue, are in areas which are subject to flood alerts from time to time.

If you are concerned that a property you are looking to buy is in a flood risk area, you should consider getting a flood risk report (click for more details).
Properties sometimes have issues with ground stability in certain locations in East Horsley.

In a recent environmental search, taken out for a property in Forest Road, KT24 5HE, the report noted that there was a moderate potential for natural ground instability within 50m of the property.

This should not be taken to mean that the property in question actually suffered/suffers from subsidence however as "active subsidence will be dependent on local conditions, such as the proximity of trees or areas where trees have been removed, which require an inspection of the site to identify the nature of the ground on which the property is built."

Properties in some areas of East Horsley may be affected by environmental constraints.

Areas which have been designated as having environmental or historical importance may impose constraints on property or land developments or alterations.

How long does it take to compile a survey report?

On the day of the inspection the surveyor will attend the property and complete your chosen survey; either a HomeBuyer Report or Building Survey. Once they are back in the office the same evening they will give you a call to run through any major issues found during the inspection (some surveyors don't offer this service however with us this comes as standard).

The surveyor will then email the report to you five working days after the survey has taken place. If the surveyor feels the report is going to take him longer to type up due to the detail included then they’ll advise you of when the survey report will be made available.
