RES Property Surveyors

We are a boutique property consultancy based in London, built on the belief that property advice should be clear, exhaustive, and tailored to the individual. While we operate with the agility of a specialist firm, our directors bring a pedigree of experience from the world’s leading property giants, including Savills, JLL, and Cushman & Wakefield.

Whether you are a first-time buyer navigating a complex leasehold or a commercial investor managing a diverse portfolio, we provide the 360-degree vision you need to move forward with confidence.

Beyond the Standard RICS Report

We don't believe in generic, tick-box surveys. Our building reports are market-leading and bespoke, designed to give you a complete understanding of your investment. To achieve this, we invest in state-of-the-art technology that many other firms overlook:

• Thermal Imaging Photography: To detect hidden heat loss and moisture issues.
• Pole Cameras: For close-up inspections of hard-to-reach roof spaces and guttering.
• Dew Point Analysis: To accurately diagnose condensation and damp risks.
• State-of-the-Art Damp Meters: For precise readings rather than guesswork.

Every survey is followed by a personal phone consultation. We take the time to walk you through our findings, ensuring you understand every defect and its potential impact on your purchase price or future maintenance budget.

A Team of Specialists, Not Generalists

Our strength lies in our people. When you hire us, you are working directly with RICS-accredited directors who have over a decade of national cross-sector experience.

Expert Guidance for Leaseholders and Freeholders

Navigating the legalities of lease extensions and freehold enfranchisement can be daunting. Led by David P Nesbit MRICS, our team specialises in these complex matters, bringing extensive tribunal experience to the table. We also provide specialist advice on management issues, major works, and service charge levels, drawing on our deep knowledge of leasehold case law.

Protecting Your Interests in Party Wall Matters

If you are planning an extension or your neighbour has served notice, our party wall specialists, including Marc Capillaire (a member of the Pyramus and Thisbe Club), are here to protect your property. We act for both building owners and adjoining owners, ensuring all works are documented with rigorous Schedules of Condition to prevent future disputes.

"Our mission is to provide accurate, trustworthy, and to-the-point advice. We concentrate on the defects that matter, so you can digest the important parts easily and make informed decisions."
