Surveys of Properties in Hampstead

If you’re about to buy a property in Hampstead you’ll want to ensure that you enter the transaction with your eyes open. It’s considered reasonable for a buyer to renegotiate the price that they’re paying, sometimes by many thousands of pounds, if an issue is discovered that a layperson would not be aware of but that can only happen if you commission a detailed survey from one of our RICS qualified experienced surveyors.

We offer both RICS Level 2 (Homebuyer) and Level 3 (Building Survey) Reports and can advise on which will best suit your needs. Following the inspection, your surveyor will make themselves available to discuss the contents and provide any clarification required.

Below you will find links to the hundreds of positive reviews we’ve received from owners who’ve commissioned surveys from us on properties in and around Hampstead. Call today to take advantage of our expertise.

Recent Activity in Hampstead NW3

Our team of surveyors have assisted numerous clients over the years with the purchase of their Hampstead property both by providing valuation advice and pre-purchase surveys. Residents regularly come back to us when it’s time to refurbish or extend their property so that we can advise on neighbourly matters or just manage the whole project.

This is where we’ll be providing details of some of the Hampstead based projects we’ve worked on recently, the challenges that we’ve faced and the feedback we’ve received from our clients so please check back over the next few weeks to read more.

In the meantime, we’d recommend that you check out the large collection of posts that have been added to our blog since 2009 including a few detailed case studies.

One of our surveyors conducted an RICS Level 2 Homebuyer report for a client who was looking to purchase a 2-bedroom flat in Hampstead. The client was particularly concerned about the roof and requested photos to be a part of the report. During the examination, it was found that the roof was covered with clay tiles, some of which had been replaced, but the overall roof required renewal with a more modern material. Inside the property, mild condensation issues were noted, and the surveyor recommended increasing ventilation, such as installing mechanical ventilation in the bathroom, which it currently lacked. After the report was issued, the surveyor and client discussed the findings during a follow-up call, providing the client with guidance on how to proceed.

In a review, the client mentioned having an “excellent experience” with Peter Barry and described the surveyor’s advice as “invaluable.”

The Level 3 (Building Survey) is the most detailed of the RICS Home Survey Reports and is suitable for all residential properties. The report can be customised and enhanced with the addition of a valuation, feasibility study or ballpark repair costs.

About Hampstead

Hampstead unfolds as a haven of sophistication, where the echoes of literary musings and natural grandeur harmonise. This retreat sits gracefully between the eclectic charisma of Camden Town and the urban subtleties of Cricklewood, crafting a delicate balance that defines its distinct character.

Transport arteries gracefully connect Hampstead to its bustling neighbours, ensuring a seamless integration into the city’s pulse and making it an oasis easily accessible to those seeking respite from the city’s hustle.

Hampstead Heath, a sprawling tapestry of rolling meadows and ancient woodlands, unfolds as the crown jewel of this enclave. The heath, with its panoramic views of the city, becomes a sanctuary for locals and visitors alike. Tranquil ponds and meandering paths beckon those in search of a peaceful escape, adding an idyllic touch to Hampstead’s allure.

In the annals of literary history, Hampstead bears the imprints of romantic poets who sought inspiration in its leafy lanes. Keats, Shelley, and Byron found solace amidst its idyllic landscapes, their verses intertwining with the rustling leaves.

All aspects of our experience using Peter Barry were good which was a breath of fresh air in a stressful house renovation.

Recommend using them.

Requested a level 2 survey with Peter Barry and was very happy with the service, the survey goes above and beyond what I have experienced before and gave a very thorough breakdown of the risks and what next steps both I and the solicitor should take. I highly recommend going with them!
