RES Property Surveyors

We are a boutique property consultancy based in London, built on the principle that property advice should be clear, technical, and tailored. While we operate with the agility of a small firm, our leadership team brings decades of experience from the world’s leading property giants, including Savills, JLL, and Cushman & Wakefield.

Whether you are a homeowner navigating a complex lease extension or a commercial investor requiring a detailed acquisition survey, we provide the high-level expertise you would expect from a global firm, delivered with a personal, director-led touch.

Beyond the Standard RICS Report

We believe a survey should do more than just list defects; it should provide a 360-degree vision of your investment. Our building surveys go significantly beyond the typical RICS Homebuyer structure. We utilise a suite of high-tech diagnostic tools to uncover what the naked eye might miss:

• Thermal Imaging Photography: To detect hidden heat loss and moisture issues.
• Pole Cameras: For close-up inspections of high-level roof structures.
• Dew Point Analysis & State-of-the-Art Damp Meters: For scientific accuracy in moisture detection.

Every report we produce is fully dictated and accompanied by photographic schedules. We focus on the issues that matter, ensuring our advice is concise and easy to digest rather than overly descriptive.

Specialists in Leasehold & Enfranchisement

Led by Director David P Nesbit, a specialist with extensive tribunal experience, we are a leading choice for lease extensions and freehold enfranchisement. As ALEP-affiliated surveyors, we understand the nuances of leasehold case law. We don't just value the property; we advise on management issues, major works, and service charge levels to ensure you are fully protected.
