Scotland’s Premier Home Report Provider
In Scotland, the Home Report is the heartbeat of any residential sale. We take that responsibility seriously. As the largest provider of Home Reports in the country, we ensure that every document we produce is thorough, transparent, and professional.
Our Home Reports provide total peace of mind, ensuring no "nasty surprises" await after a transaction. When you instruct us, you receive a comprehensive package including:
- The Single Survey: A detailed assessment of the property’s condition, from the roof to the foundations.
- Energy Performance Certificate (EPC): Expert ratings on energy efficiency and estimated running costs.
- Mortgage Valuation: A summary trusted by banks and building societies to secure your funding.
- Property Questionnaire: Essential information for buyers that goes beyond the physical structure.
Beyond Residential: Commercial and Auctions
Our expertise isn't limited to the home. We operate a powerhouse commercial department that handles everything from Lease Advisory and Asset Management to complex Commercial Valuations.
For those looking for a fast, transparent sale, our Shepherd Commercial Auctions platform is a market leader. We host live-broadcast virtual auctions, allowing buyers and sellers to connect in a secure, high-energy environment from anywhere in the world.
"Our integrative property service ensures that whether it's a retail unit in the Highlands or a flat in Edinburgh, you have the best local knowledge at your disposal."
A Partnership Built on Trust
Following our successful merger with Hardies Property and Construction Consultants, we have expanded our reach into the construction sector, allowing us to offer a truly holistic service.
We pride ourselves on being approachable. We know that property transactions can be stressful, which is why we commit to a 24-hour response time for quotes and enquiries. Our surveyors aren't just names on a report; they are local experts who live and work in the communities they serve, providing the context and insight that only a neighbor can offer.
