Homebuyer Survey and Valuation

1. The Service. The standard HOMEBUYER Survey &
   Valuation Service ("the Service") which is described
   in Part 2 of these Terms ("the Description")
   applies unless an addition to the Service is
   agreed in writing before the Inspection. (An
   example of such an addition is reporting upon
   parts, which are not normally inspected, such
   as the opening of all windows.)
   
2. The Surveyor who provides the Service will be
   a Chartered Surveyor, or a Fellow or Associate
   of the Incorporated Society of Valuers and
   Auctioneers, who is competent to survey, value
   and report upon the Property which is the
   subject of these Terms.
   
3. Before the Inspection. The Client will inform
   the Surveyor of the agreed price for the Property
   and of any particular concerns (such as plans
   for extension) which he or she may have about
   the Property.
   
4. Terms of payment. The Client agrees to pay the
   fee and any other charges agreed in writing.
   
5. Cancellation. The Client will be entitled to cancel
   this contract by notifying the Surveyor's office at
   any time before the day of the Inspection. The
   Surveyor will be entitled not to proceed with the
   provision of the Service (and will so report
   promptly to the Client) if, after arriving at the
   Property, he or she concludes:
   
   1. That it is of a type of construction of which he
      or she has insufficient specialist knowledge
      to be able to provide the Service satisfactorily; or
   2. That it would be in the typical Client's best
      interests to be provided with a Building Survey,
      plus valuation, rather than the
      HOMEBUYER Service.
   In case of cancellation, the Surveyor will refund any
   money paid by the Client for the Service, except for
   expenses reasonably incurred. In the case of
   cancellation by the Surveyor, the reason will be
   explained to the Client.
   
6. Liability. The Report provided is solely for the use
   of the Client and the Client's professional advisers,
   and no liability to anyone else is accepted. Should
   the Client not act upon specific, reasonable advice
   contained in the Report, no responsibility is
   accepted for the consequences.
7. Complaints Handling Procedure - A copy of
   the firm's complaints handling procedure is
   available on request.
