VOSPERS Chartered Surveyors & Valuers

VOSPERS are a Farnham, Surrey based firm of Chartered Surveyors operating predominantly across the Guildford and Reading postcode areas, but can also service clients further afield in Central and South West London.

We have over 25 years of locally based, residential experience which allows us to provide expert advice to private clients purchasing a property and large financial institutions in regard to investment purchases.

We can supply our clients with a wide range of property services. Our services for residential clients include:

  • Valuation service
  • RICS HomeBuyer Report
  • Building Survey

AT VOSPERS you will be getting a service from RICS Registered Valuers, and all HomeBuyer Reports we supply will adhere to the guidelines and standards set out by the RICS.

Getting an independent survey through VOSPERS will inform you of the true condition of the property and help you to avoid any cost repair work after you have settled in. It may also permit you to renegotiate the purchase price.

We know that the transaction of purchasing a property is not always a smooth process, so we will help you make the difficult decisions at this time by providing expert, professional advice founded on many years of experience in the industry. We have a diverse client base so we are sure to be able to find a solution to your needs.

We are renowned for the attention to detail we give each of our surveys and we pride ourselves on creating a lasting, close working relationship with our clients – getting very frequent repeat business from our happy customers.

We can also offer a range of services for the commercial property sector specialising in valuations, business rates advice and advice for landlords and tenants.

Please call to discuss your requirements and find out how we can provide you with the service you require. If you are unsure of what would be the appropriate survey for you and your property we can offer useful advice to help you decide.

When I originally contacted Vospers, there was no urgency because things were progressing very slowly in the rest of the chain. Then all of a sudden, everyone was ready to exchange and I was the one holding everyone up because I was awaiting my survey to be carried out and reported on. Vospers were responsive in my hour of need and their flexibility and understanding was very much appreciated. My only negative is that sometimes, communications weren't as timely as they could have been or as promised, but given the final result I shouldn't gumble!

Great personal service. I'm buying a house built in 1866, so needed a Buildings Survey. Nick and I chatted beforehand and I pointed out several concerns I had and asked him to make sure he looked at them for me. The survey was completed within one week and straight afterwards, my partner and I had a conference call with Nick to go over the results. He was thorough and had clearly spent a good amount of time going over everything and he had addressed all my concerns. This made it very easy to decide that we were happy to continue with the purchase. Thanks Nick!

Quite the most frustrating experience and by far the worst customer service I can ever remember experiencing. I lost count of the number of unanswered emails and non-returned phone calls while I was trying arrange my survey. When I finally managed to book a BUILDINGS survey after numerous fruitless phone calls and emails (and ironically Vosper’s actually did acknowledge this particular instruction by email), they actually conducted a HOMEBUYER survey – but at least I was only charged the lower cost of this. Their invoice stated that my survey would be released upon receipt of payment and that ‘we accept all major cards, please call the office’. However, when I phoned the office to pay the invoice by bank debit card, I was told by the receptionist that she was not authorised to take payment and that she would get someone to call me back. Yep, you guessed – no one ever did. After waiting 2 days for that promised call, I ended up arranging an e-transfer via my bank. What an utter shambles! The good point: they are cheaper than the competition. The bad: Customer service is nothing less than totally shambolic – beyond appalling – if you decide to use them, be prepared to be very, very patient!

No one ever enjoys receiving a review like this – and indeed it goes completely against the flow of reviews we have usually received from general clients directly and all the websites we are present on. In fairness we note from our job log that many return calls to this client remained unanswered and, indeed, a number of emails bounced back too! The client was informed at an early stage that we did not undertake building surveys on purpose built flats although, on checking, it appears our correspondence was not acknowledged. Given the very notable increase in demand for services this year we realised the need to “up our game”. In late July we closed for two weeks in order that we could review all our systems and procedures to ensure an efficient service to all our clients. With additional staff in place and on their way we aim to ensure that the experience outline here is not duplicated.

I was very happy with my dealings with VOSPERS. I did have a slight problem getting hold of the correct person at times, but given the very competitive price I can live with that. I had my survey report within 5 working days of the actual survey as detailed in the customer care letter sent. I would definitely recommend VOSPERS.

Vospers have provided excellent service. All communications have been clear and polite, the service has been great and the fees very competitive. The surveys were undertaken promptly and the report prepared and delivered within 3 working days of the survey. I have used Vospers for 2 reports now and would highly recommend their services.
