Surveys of Properties in Dulwich

If you’re about to buy a property in Dulwich you’ll want to ensure that you enter the transaction with your eyes open. It’s considered reasonable for a buyer to renegotiate the price that they’re paying, sometimes by many thousands of pounds, if an issue is discovered that a layperson would not be aware of but that can only happen if you commission a detailed survey from one of our RICS qualified experienced surveyors.

We offer both RICS Level 2 (Homebuyer) and Level 3 (Building Survey) Reports and can advise on which will best suit your needs. Following the inspection, your surveyor will make themselves available to discuss the contents and provide any clarification required.

Below you will find links to the hundreds of positive reviews we’ve received from owners who’ve commissioned surveys from us on properties in and around Dulwich. Call today to take advantage of our expertise.

The Level 2 (Homebuyer) Report is designed to provide buyers with concise information about the condition of a property. This is achieved by giving elements a Condition Rating based on the traffic light system and summarising them at the front of the report.

About Dulwich

Dulwich, located in the London Borough of Southwark, is a leafy and historic part of South East London known for its village-like feel and elegant period properties. Centred around Dulwich Village, the area features a mix of Georgian, Victorian and Edwardian homes set along quiet, tree-lined streets. Its strong sense of community and abundance of green spaces give it a distinctly relaxed character while remaining close to central London.

One of Dulwich’s key attractions is Dulwich Park, a beautifully maintained open space offering a boating lake, sports facilities and landscaped gardens. The area is also home to the Dulwich Picture Gallery, the UK’s oldest public art gallery, which hosts a varied programme of exhibitions throughout the year. Dulwich has long attracted creative and academic figures, and P.G. Wodehouse, the renowned author and humorist, was a former pupil of Dulwich College, adding a notable cultural link to the neighbourhood.

Dulwich enjoys convenient transport connections via North Dulwich, West Dulwich and East Dulwich stations, with direct rail services to London Bridge, Victoria and Blackfriars. Despite its peaceful ambiance, the area offers quick access to the city, making it particularly appealing for commuters seeking a balance between urban convenience and a more tranquil residential setting.

Our surveyor, James, arrived at the house at the appointed time and was most helpful in explaining the details of the party wall agreement. He later sent the completed document as promised. Most efficient and friendly service throughout.

Response from the owner:Thank you, Rachel, for your lovely review. We’re really pleased to hear the survey put you at ease and that the team’s thorough approach — including the detailed photos and drone imagery — helped you feel fully protected. Your kind words about the surveyor’s professionalism and respect for your home mean a great deal.
I was a neighbour of someone who wanted to do some changes to their dormer into a full loft conversion. The surveyor sent to review our shared walls was very young professional and helped answer all my questions and concerns. The emails from the firm were very formal, else and they were very reachable by telephone. I didn’t pay as my neighbour was carrying out the works so I can’t comment there. I would consider using this firm for further works personally
Response from the owner:Thank you for sharing your experience. We’re really pleased to hear how well the surveyor supported you throughout your neighbour’s loft‑conversion process.
Very responsive and proactive. Would highly recommend
Response from the owner:Thank you, we appreciate your recommendation.
