RES Property Surveyors

We are a boutique property consultancy based in London, built on the principle that expert property advice should be personal, precise, and technologically advanced. While we operate as a nimble, independent team, our directors bring decades of experience from the world’s leading real estate firms, including Savills, JLL, and Cushman & Wakefield.

Whether you are a first-time buyer in the South East or a seasoned commercial investor, we provide the high-level technical oversight you need to protect your assets.

Beyond the Standard RICS Report: A 360-Degree View

We believe a survey should do more than just list visible defects. Our building surveys are market-leading because we invest in technology that others don't. When we arrive at a property, we come equipped with:

• Thermal imaging photography to detect hidden heat loss and moisture
• High-reach pole cameras for close-up inspections of roofs and chimneys
• State-of-the-art damp meters and dew point analysis to identify the root cause of issues

Every report we produce is fully dictated and accompanied by a photographic schedule. Most importantly, we don't just send a PDF and disappear; we arrange a personal phone consultation with every client to talk through the findings and answer your questions in plain English.

Specialist Expertise in Leasehold and Party Wall Matters

Navigating the legalities of London property requires a specialist touch. Our team includes recognized experts in niche fields:
