What type of property survey should you have?
If you are taking out a mortgage the lender will insist upon carrying out a valuation inspection. Although you will bear the cost of this it is just a valuation for the lender's purposes and not a survey. The two most common types of property survey are an RICS Homebuyer Survey and Valuation, often referred to as a Homebuyer's Report and a Building Survey. The Homebuyer's Report will be suitable in most cases. The exceptions are properties that are more than 150 years old, that have been substantially altered or that have known structural problems. If any of these exceptions apply a Building Survey, previously known as a Full Structural survey, will be more appropriate.

Information on Upper EdmontonUpper Edmonton is a residential suburb located in North London just to the North of Tottenham. The area is known locally as “Angel” after a now long demolished public house. The most famous building in the area is probably the North Middlesex Hospital. Located just south of the North Circular Road the busy general hospital serves the communities of the London Boroughs of Enfield and Haringey.
Property in the area is considerably cheaper than neighbouring areas such as Winchmore Hill and Enfield Town which may explain its attraction to recently arrived immigrants. There are well-established Afro-Caribbean, Albanian, Bangladeshi, Greek, Turkish and Somalian communities in the area. Angel is located between two National Rail stations, White Hart Lane to the south and Silver Street to the north, either of which will get you to Liverpool Street in about twenty minutes.
