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 Canada Water

Canada Water is a small area in the London Borough of Southwark. It sits on the tips of the Docklands, in between Bermondsey and Rotherhithe.

Although the area is called Canada Water, the name actually refers to the freshwater lake around which fairly recent development has taken place. It is still developing as a residential area, although a number of new developments have helped to attract people into the area. The Surrey Quays Shopping Centre provides ample retail opportunities and the area’s proximity to the centre of London and also to Canary Wharf has helped to ensure its increasing popularity.

Canada Water underground is on the relatively new Jubilee line expansion and it is zone 2. It offers travellers a quick and easy route into central London. Buses also travel into town and out to Greenwich, Deptford and Woolwich so the area is well served by public transport.
