Survey Tip 3 |
A large number of the properties in Swiss Cottage date back to Victorian times with large town houses being built between 1850s to the early 1900s With the age of the properties in the area we would always advise a Level 3 Building Survey to ensure a detailed report is carried out on the building. It is the highest visual inspection from a RICS surveyor followed by a fully comprehensive report on any defects that the property might contain. |
There are a few properties in Swiss Cottage areas that have been affected by Subsidence. A RICS surveyor is able to identify suspicions of this particularly troublesome property defect and will always suggest a follow up inspection from a Structural Engineer to provide the best course of action. If you are concerned that a property you are looking to buy has been affected by Subsidence, you might also consider getting a ground stability report. |
If you are in the market for a new build, Swiss Cottage has a range of apartments and houses for your choosing. However new homes sometimes aren't 'finished' properly. For example, tiles in bathrooms are often insufficiently sealed and kitchen unit doors might not shut properly. A RICS surveyor can conduct a snagging survey, inspecting the property to ensure the highest build quality, from the painting on the walls to the locks and handles on the doors. With a report that can be submitted to the developers you are better able to request that they rectify any issues overlooked. |
