What kind of Survey should I
have?
If you are buying a
property, there is currently one level of survey available from Tim Stubbs Limited, the
RICS HomeBuyer Service.
There are two further
alternatives within the RICS HomeBuyer Service. You can choose the "survey only" option or, at a higher cost, you
can choose the "survey and valuation" report. Examples are available on our "Downloads" page. However, due to
market uncertainty due to Brexit and the Coronavirus Covid-19 pandemic, we are currently only offering the
Homebuyer (Survey) Service.
A mortgage valuation is
not a survey. An example of a mortgage valuation carried out by a national firm of chartered surveyors (not by Tim
Stubbs) can be found on our "Downloads" page.

Unfortunately, due to the restrictions imposed by the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors,
we are no longer able to offer the Private Written Valuation report for the purchase of
property.
