Since surveys aren't required by lenders anymore, I have difficulty trying to convince buyers of the importance of getting a survey. It's been especially difficult in the past few years when most surveyors seem to be charging close to $500.
I'm so excited about finding Brendan Blake of Blake Engineering and Land Surveying.
The quality of the surveys and the quick turnaround times are the real value. I've seen so many surveys where it's almost impossible for anyone to decipher what they mean. Brendan has everything spelled out and provides incredible details on the survey.
He also does rush orders at no additional charge. That's so important when you are racing to meet due diligence deadlines.
Brendan specializes in residentlal properties but also is well qualified to do large commcial projects such as sites for WalMarts and such.
I did a quick interview with Brendan in order to give you a quick personal introduction and let him speak for himself.
Don't let your buyers not do a survey. At only $325, there's no reason not to.
Great information! Not only are the cost high, but many are not calling back. Thanks for posting this, I will pass his info along.
Tim, thanks for the recommendation. I will put his contact information in my database.
Thanks for the recommendation, Tim! I've had several $450 to $550 surveys lately and I'm sure my buyers (or sellers) would love a quality survey @ a reasonable price.
