Top tips for a London Home Buyers Survey
London, like most great world capitals, has a huge variety of different architectural styles from many periods. The oldest intact building in London is the Tower of London’s White Tower, built by William the Conqueror but there are surviving fragments of the Roman London Wall which date back as far as the late 2nd/early 3rd century.
Marylebone district has many properties with the beautiful frontages of the Arts & Crafts movement but the City of London’s buildings sometimes qualify as the ‘last word’ in design such as the Lloyds Building and the ‘Gherkin’. There is genuinely something for everyone, from ex-council estates to stunning new build developments, although prices are never cheap.

Local Tip 1 | Local Tip 2 | Local Tip 3 |
Properties in London which are built in close proximity to its major rivers may be affected by flood alerts and warnings from time to time. This is particularly the case with the River Thames, London's principal river, but also for the Rivers Wandle, Colne, Brent, Lee, Pinn, and Ravensbourne, among others. 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). | Flood warning and alert areas in London are most prevalent around the path of the River Thames as well as the Lea Valley and the River Roding's path. There are smaller areas around more minor rivers and water courses depending on the locale. 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). | A high proportion of London is built on clay soil which has a higher chance of shrinkage that can cause or lead to subsidence. |

Home Buyers Survey - What does it cover?
A Home Buyers Survey is completed by a qualified RICS surveyor and delivers a visual inspection of the property in London and the surrounding garden. The aim of the survey, whether a Building Survey (which used to be known as a Full Structural Survey) or a HomeBuyers Report, is to identify potential risks or defects that you may not know are there such as cracks or damage to the structure of the property, subsidence, damp and infestations.
