Top tips for a Fleet Home Buyers Survey
Fleet is an affluent town in north Hampshire and is a commuter town for many London workers. It developed largely when the railway arrived in 1840, the same year that the Christ Church parish church was built.
There are few very old buildings in Fleet and most of the town has formed around some Victorian buildings such as All Saint's Church, built c. 1862. Much building occurred between the 1st and 2nd World Wars, with many semi-detached and terrace houses being built.
Building picked up again in the 1960s and then from the mid-1970s onwards, new areas such as Ancells Farm and Zebon Copse were built. Elvetham Heath was completed in 2008 and has added around 3,500 to Fleet's population.

A RICS Home Buyers Survey involves an examination of the structure of the inside and the outside of a property.

How do I arrange access?
On instruction, we take a few key details from you, one of which being the details of the estate agent managing the property. We then organise access with the estate agent and determine whether they hold keys to the property or if the property is accessed via the owner (vendor). We then let the estate agent know the surveyor's intended arrival time and finalise the survey date.
In the event that the property is accessed through the vendor, gaining access can be tricky. Often the vendor will have to find time away from work/private life in order to accommodate the survey which can lead to having to revise the date of survey. Often in worst case scenarios (i.e. the vendor being on holiday), the vendor can leave their keys with the estate agents or a neighbour who are then the port of call to arrange access.

A Building Survey used to be called the Full Structural Survey and is the most comprehensive visual inspection a surveyor can provide.
