Brokers Brunch: Surveyor Selection, Survey Reports and How to Handle Findings
Brunch Date: September 19, 2024
Zoom
As brokers we need to be careful with our involvement when assisting our buyers selecting a suitable surveyor. What can we do, what can’t we do? Attending the survey is the best way to understand what is discovered. The buyer-owned survey report should be reviewed to discuss normal wear and tear vs. problem items. What is the best way to handle findings to keep your deal on track? The survey is the turning point for every transaction and your involvement and advice to your buyer can make a big difference.
