Survey report delayed slightly due to illness of surveyor. Great report once received.

Dear Customer, we are sorry for the delay due to illness. We are pleased that the report was helpful in highlighting some unusual problems with the property and trust the follow up verbal advice helped you make a decision. Thank you.

Steve was so easy to keep in touch with, very convenient to communicate via email. However, we did have a few timing issues the report which should have been ready on the Friday wasn't ready until the Saturday late afternoon. Which as you can understand was only frustrating as the estate agents had closed by this time, which then delayed us until the Monday from discussing the issue's found in the report until the Monday. The report itself is very well laid out and is easy (as it can be) to read. Overall I rate the service as fairly good the only thing letting the score down being the delay in producing the report.

Both reallymoving.com and the surveyor are excellent. It saved me time shopping around on the market. Reallymoving does give very good choices and the one I went for is certainly an experienced surveyor who picked up a major problem of the property for our attention and the valuation he gave is much lower than the offer price which we thought was good enough for us. However it wasn't the case. So good that I got the surveyor done!

The website was easy to use. I was contacted by the surveyor within a few days and the survey was organised very quickly with great communication without the whole process
