Hi Chatanooga,
Upon handover, we made the price more affordable it has reduced from £280 to £250 including vat.
This includes vendor and surveyor liason, full property comparables and condition report, 15-20 photographs and hosting of survey anywhere in the UK.
It is rare for a surveyor to behave awkwardly and ignore a presented report etc, but occasionally this does happen. The risk of a bad survey is mitigated however if the process is managed professionally from the beginning. If MeetTheSurveyor are used, the reps are extremely knowledgeable, having hosted dozens of surveys each and also have a people orientated demeanor which helps massage surveyors egos somewhat.
When you say working with a packager do you mean mortgage packager or deal packager, we work with both in many capacities.
I wrote a full page article this month about surveys and hosting surveys in Your Property Network, I think you will find this article very useful.
Kind Regards,
Phil
