Why Get a Survey?
Getting a survey might get you a better deal on your property. Armed with all of the facts, you're in a better position to negotiate.

WHAT IS A SCHEDULE OF CONDITION?
A Schedule of Condition is a detailed and factual record of the condition of a property. The Schedule of Condition is usually prepared for contractual reasons to establish the condition of the property at a set date in time. This is most frequently used during the beginning of a lease agreement or for party wall agreements. This can be carried out on residential and commercial premises.
A Schedule of Condition can be requested by a landlord, tennant, employer, contractor or neighbour.
Having a Schedule of Condition completed by an independent expert provides verification of the property's condition. This is important in the event any party raises a claim or negotiation.
A Schedule of Condition is different from a Condition Survey. The Schedule of Condition is a record of a building's condition accompanied by descriptive annotations and photographs, usually appended to a legal document. A Condition Survey, however, is a document prepared to identify the condition of the building with the purpose of determining what works are required, if any.
