We recently used Cosey Homes for a property survey and were very impressed with the service provided. The survey was arranged quickly, communication was clear throughout. The survey itself was thorough, detailed, and easy to understand, highlighting both major issues and areas that may require attention in the future. The findings gave us a much clearer understanding of the property's condition and helped us make informed decisions during the purchase process. Overall, a reliable and professional service that provided excellent value for money. I would happily recommend Cosey Homes to anyone purchasing a property.

I'm very happy with the service I received from Ian for my Level 3 Survey. His report was thorough, detailed and highlighted important issues that I wouldn't have been aware of otherwise. He also took the time to answer my follow-up questions in detail after the survey, providing clear explanations and helping me better understand his findings. This gave me a much clearer picture of the property's condition and what needed further investigation before proceeding with the purchase. I really appreciate his professionalism, attention to detail and willingness to help. I would happily recommend his services!

We recently had a Level 3 Building Survey carried out and couldn’t be happier with the service we received! We dealt with Sadie over the phone, who was always so polite, friendly and helpful. Philip carried out our survey and was incredibly thorough and detailed. He provided so much useful information and really took the time to cover everything, which gave us great peace of mind. Our survey was carried out on the Wednesday and we received the full report by Monday, which was an amazing turnaround compared to other companies we had looked into! Fantastic service from start to finish. Would definitely recommend! 😊

Excellent service on a tight deadline We needed a retrospective RICS Red Book valuation of our London flat for a Right to Buy District Valuer case, with barely two weeks to the submission deadline. Cosey Homes delivered from start to finish. Kit Lam responded to our enquiry the same day, asked the right questions about the brief and kept us updated throughout. Hugh Barber inspected the property within days and produced a thorough, well-reasoned report four days ahead of the promised date. The report covered everything in our instruction: the retrospective valuation date, the statutory basis, comparable evidence including a same-block sale, and clear reasoning behind the figure. The quality control from the wider team, including Anthony who followed up afterwards, was a nice touch. A professional firm doing exactly what they promise, when they promise it, at a fair price. We would use Cosey Homes again without hesitation and recommend them to anyone needing a specialist valuation under time pressure. Muhammad & Sania, London E16
