Misleading - Bullies

I feel that my experience with Allied Surveyors on more than one instance of purchasing a house has left me very disappointed and upset. I feel that they were misleading and dismissive of me bringing up issues that in the end went unresolved.To me it felt that there was something not right and I then discovered that on more than one instance, with the same estate agent using Allied, the home reports scored high, especially the 1’s. They appeared to be scoring high and very lenient when compared to more thorough surveyors. Features of our house that we had not changed at all in a very short space of time were rated 1 by Allied and given extremely vague and brief explanations such as “reasonably modern design”.The experiences with the home reports carried out by Allied Surveyors had left me feeling mislead. Their categories score very high but in fact when the home report was carried out by a separate surveyor, the high scores were discovered not to be 1’s which we felt was a failure in duty of care. It left me feeling suspicious and unable to trust Allied Surveyors when serious faults were discovered in the property at a first glance when I received the keys.I feel that Allied were at an advantage when carrying out the home report as they get to spend a meaningful amount of time inspecting the property closely and analysing its features - which you do not get to do on a 10 minute viewing when purchasing the property. The seller told us that person who carried the home report moved furniture which contradicted what was claimed in my interview of the surveyor. In the surveyors own words, the seller is “honest” so I can only go based on their honest recollection of the experience. The surveyor was extremely unprofessional in my opinion and used a tone with me that was condescending and I felt they were very rude to me. They made me feel like they did not want to openly discuss facts but instead tried to dismiss me. They were very defensive and interrupted me when I was only trying to describe the issue I was facing in regards to a category on the report being scored 1 when in fact it was discovered to be a serious fault. They also appeared not to know how making offers on properties works in modern times as nobody offers the home report price or less when attempting to buy a property.My impression of the home reports was that it was not an accurate representation. A house is the biggest purchase you will potentially ever make in your life. To be mislead about what you are purchasing is extremely upsetting and disappointing when you receive the keys and discover serious faults. I feel that it is a complete failure in duty of care and misrepresention. In my experience I would recommend to do thorough research and be very careful if you are dealing with home reports. Challenge the home report and be very diligent when viewing a property. First time buyers especially. In the future I will not be viewing any properties surveyed by them and sharing my experience friends and family to inform them.I will be submitting a formal complaint although based on the many other 1 star reviews on here, I do not hold out much hope as based on what others have said, they police themselves.

Allied Surveyors have been fantastic

Allied Surveyors have been fantastic , very professional and left me with great confidence . Allied will be my first contact in the future . Especially before property purchase as their local knowledge is excellent . Allied valued my current build project at each drawdown stage , I met with Alan Imrie from the Stirling branch , who was more than helpful and had a good understanding of the build environment and was easily contactable . I have now completed the project and requested a valuation from Mark Hall from the Perth branch , From initial contact with Elaine at Perth ( who was lovely to deal with ) to a quick response and date given by mark , mark arrived early and clearly knew the build process and it was a joy to discuss the build with him , Since the initial valuation I have subsequently instructed Allied to complete an EPC on my property . I wouldn't hesitate to use Allied in the future and I would recommend Allied to all my friends and colleagues , I have been a project manager in the housebuilding industry for 27 years , and this is the first time i have ever written a review . Thanks again to all the team at Allied Surveyors

First Survey Experience

My first experience with completing a home report for sale of my house. Contacted Allied Surveyors of Inverness and ma de the arrangements with ease. The survey was carried out at my convenience, and with absolute no hassle. I am happy and impressed with the way it was conducted, the process was fully explained to me, and subsequent questions I had were answered satisfactorily. Prior to publishing report, I had the opportunity to read over the draft to see if I’d any further questions, which I had, and was satisfied when all was clarified. I am so impressed with the service I received that I’d fully recommend Allied Surveyors.

I wasted my money and time by choosing Allied Surveyors for valuation of my home.I bought a home couple of years and spend a lot of money to improve the rating of house by adding solar, new windows, new boiler, radiators insulation etc, thought of my home valuation will increase but according allied surveyors all the upgrades does not matter and asked to show comparable prices in my locality. so some other house sales is deciding the value of my house not my house state and condition. so now I am looking to find some other better surveyor to get proper valuation.

Dear Mr Ankathi. We are very disappointed that you have chosen to give us a 1-star review without first giving us the opportunity to address your concerns.Unfortunately, spend on energy improvements does not automatically result in a like for like uplift in capital value. Our valuations are based on detailed comparable evidence of sales of similar properties in your area and also reflect wider market conditions. Our surveyor would be happy to provide a full explanation if you would like to contact him. In the event that you remain unsatisfied, we have a robust Complaints Handling Procedure backed up by recourse to the Centre for Effective Dispute Resolution. If you would like a copy of our Complaints Handling Procedure please email info@alliedsurveyorsscotland.com Thank you

Professional and really nice person to deal with. Scott from Allied Surveyors (Stirling/falkirk area) recently did my home report. He was easy to talk and he explained the issues he noticed at the time of viewing the property as well as in more detail in the report itself. He is a very fair individual and also in our discussion gave me the opportunity to correct a few things. Not full of himself or power tripping. Just a genuninely nice person doing his job. Thank you.

Allied always my first choice....

Allied have been my choice for survey work for over 20 years now. I trust the team there whether it is for personal residential work or indeed commercial properties which tends to be the majority of my current work.Recently we had a survey that needed to be carried out quickly and this was done to our complete satisfaction. What I like best about dealing with Andy and Allied is that each decision and valuation is fully explained and you have clarity and trust in what they are saying. They are also adept at working within my often tight timescales.We also needed a EPC and again this was organised with their specialist in house and carried out within a matter of days.Would recommend Allied highly and the fact that I have chosen them for all my work when possible says it all.

Very good service and contacts

We greatly appreciate the invaluable support we've received from Allied Surveyors in expanding our office space and attracting new tenants. Their impressive network of contacts has played a pivotal role in sourcing potential tenants for us. Over the past five months, we've experienced a significant influx of new tenants, with eight individuals successfully occupying offices acquired through Allied Surveyors. Without their assistance, this achievement would not have been possible. Allied Surveyors are effectively empowering small businesses throughout the county, and their contributions should not be underestimated.

Valuation Report

Valuation ReportWe recently appointed Allied Surveyors Scotland to produce a valuation report for a car parking space that we have in the Edinburgh New Town. The comprehensive report was delivered quickly and demonstrated their expertise in this aspect of the sector. The report was precise, detailed and offered a very encouraging indication of the sale price. We have since instructed them to proceed with marketing the space and are confident that it will sell quickly based on the expert opinion that has been expressed by Allied Surveyors Scotland.G J DaveyScotland DirectorRAF Benevolent Fund
