Frequently Asked Questions

A Level 2 Homebuyer Survey is a visual inspection of a conventional property in reasonable condition, with every major element rated 1, 2 or 3. A Level 3 Building Survey is the most detailed RICS survey: it suits older, larger, altered or unusual properties and explains the causes of defects, the repair options and the risks of leaving them. Compare the two levels.

A Level 2 Homebuyer Survey starts at £399 and a Level 3 Building Survey at £499. The final fee depends on the property, so send us the address for a fixed quote. See what an RICS survey costs.

Excellent company to work with - easy to organise and book, fantastic detail provided and their depth of knowledge and understanding of the London property was exceptional. Saqib and his team were available every step of the way and made the purchasing process much easier for me and my wife as first time home buyers! I would definitely recommend MSR Surveying to my friends and family. Infact I have and they have provided the same level of service!!

Great communication from MSR Surveying from the start, I had informative phone calls and emails beforehand and we received a reasonably priced quote. Paid for and booked in the survey and the surveyor went out to the house in a very timely manner. We then received the report the very next day. I requested a phone call from the person who completed our survey as there were a couple of things I didn't understand, he rang me and explained them very well to me. Couldn't recommend them enough. Thank you.

I recently had a damp report carried out due to a leak coming from a neighbour’s property, and I couldn’t be more impressed with the service. From start to finish, the process was smooth, efficient, and highly professional. The team responded promptly, delivered a quick turnaround, and provided a clear, detailed report that thoroughly outlined the extent of the issue. The service was also very reasonably priced. This report will be used as part of court proceedings, and I have every confidence in its quality and accuracy. Highly recommended for anyone in need of a reliable and thorough damp inspection.

A very positive experience! We enquired about a survey with a very kind gentleman, Saqib, who had looked at the house online and had done some research before the call. This gave the phone call a more personal touch. We booked the survey towards the end of March and it was completed within 3 days. We then received, which was very detailed and included lots of photos! Very, very happy with the services and definitely would recommend.
