Kingfisher House, Elmfield Road, Bromley, Kent, BR1 1LT, Bromley
We are independent residential experts providing bespoke RICS surveys and valuations across London and the South East. From Homebuyer reports to complex litigation and compulsory purchase advice, our MRICS and FRICS team delivers personal service with total integrity.
Buying a home is likely the most significant investment you will ever make. At Edward James Surveyors, we ensure you move forward with confidence, backed by the expert insight of Chartered Surveyors who know the London and South East markets inside out.
We aren't a faceless corporate firm. We are an independently owned business that prides itself on a bespoke, personal approach. Whether you are a first-time buyer in Hackney or an executor managing an estate in Suffolk, we tailor our expertise to your specific needs.
Why Homeowners Across the South East Trust Us
We believe that local knowledge is irreplaceable. While we provide comprehensive coverage across London, Kent, and Suffolk, our surveyors maintain deep roots in these areas. This allows us to spot regional property trends and structural nuances that others might miss.

Expert Surveys for Every Property Type
Choosing the right survey can be daunting. We take the time to talk you through your options to ensure you get the level of detail you actually need.
- Building Surveys: Our most comprehensive report, essential for older, larger, or unusual properties. We examine every visible and accessible part of the structure.
- RICS Homebuyers Surveys: Perfect for modern homes, using a clear 'traffic light' system to highlight urgent defects.
- Defect Reports: If you are worried about a specific issue—like a crack or damp—we provide a targeted assessment of the cause and the necessary cure.
Beyond the Standard Survey: Specialist Valuations
Our team is highly sought after for complex valuation matters. We don't just look at bricks and mortar; we understand the legal and tax frameworks surrounding property.
We have a proven track record in high-stakes environments, including providing Expert Witness evidence for matrimonial disputes and litigation. We also specialise in Compulsory Purchase and Compensation, recently advising clients in the Royal Borough of Greenwich (Charlton) and the London Borough of Hackney on major re-development projects.
"Our mission is to provide the clarity you need to make informed decisions, delivered with the integrity and personal touch of an independent firm."
Tax and Estate Support
We work closely with executors and property owners to provide precise valuations for:
- Probate & Inheritance Tax: Ensuring fair and accurate reporting for estates.
- Capital Gains Tax: Including essential retrospective valuations (such as the April 2015 benchmark for non-UK residents).
- Immigration Purposes: Providing formal property inspections to meet visa requirements.
