We make sure you are completely in-the-know on your property before you buy. Don't get caught out and experience buyer's remorse after your move.


Why Do You Need This Survey?


Monitor Icon

Properties are sold as caveat emptor in other words the buyer alone is responsible for checking the quality and suitability of a home before a purchase is made.


Monitor Icon

Most popular property website listings have a disclaimer that the real estate agent has not tested any facilities, equipment or services.


Monitor Icon

Fixtures like taps, showers, cupboards and doors aren't always obvious if they contain faults. They can be embarrassing to check yourself or you forget. 


Monitor Icon

Traditional surveys in the UK such as home buyers survey do not check the suitable operation or function of fixtures in a property as it isn't their primary focus


How it Works


You order a property check. We collect the details about the property and estate agent.


We arrange access to the property directly with the estate agent and occupier. Including picking up the keys.


Our Brightchecker checks the property and compiles the report using our app. 


You receive the report either the same day or within 24 hours of the check being done after our quality checks.
