Level 2 Home Survey with Valuation
A combined Level 2 Home Survey and valuation gives you both condition advice and an independent opinion of market value in one report.
About Level 2 Home Surveys with Valuations
A Level 2 Home Survey with Valuation provides the same detailed condition assessment as a standard Level 2 survey, with the added benefit of an independent market valuation. This service is ideal for buyers who want reassurance on both the property’s condition and whether they are paying a fair price.
The survey identifies visible defects, maintenance issues and potential risks that could affect the property’s value or safety. Alongside this, our Chartered Surveyors provide a professional valuation based on market evidence and local knowledge.
This combined service is particularly useful where buyers are not relying on a lender valuation or want additional reassurance beyond a mortgage valuation. The report is written in clear language and designed to support informed decision making.


Six Reasons Why This Service Is Important
Choosing the right survey is an important step in the property buying process. Understanding why this level of inspection matters can help you decide whether it is appropriate for the type of property you are purchasing and the level of reassurance you require.
Here are 6 reasons why this is important:
🏠 Condition assessment and valuation in one report
💷 Confirms whether the asking price is realistic
🔍 Highlights visible defects and risks
📊 Supports informed purchasing decisions
⚖️ Independent professional valuation
🛠️ Practical advice on repairs and maintenance

Report was thorough and went above and beyond. Cannot recommend enough!Posted on Sean HarrisonTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Had a mid-level survey done for a house we are purchasing. The survey was very detailed but in a layout which was easy to follow and understand. They were always easy to contact and happy to respond to any queries. Would definitely recommendPosted on Nigel StreetTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I can highly recommend John Brownlow at Edward Genesis. I’ve had a number of surveys over the years conducted by large corporate companies and I’ve found to my cost that they often fall short. Edward Genesis on the other hand are exceptionally thorough and the report compiled by John was detailed accurate and exceptionally well written. It also contained clear pictures to highlight any issues of concern. Overall excellent service and I would definitely use them in the future.Posted on CASA DE LOS CUATRO VIENTOSTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We had a Level 3 survey carried out by Mr Brownlow from Edwards Genesis as well as a valuation. From beginning to end, we received nothing but exceptional service. Mr Brownlow was professional and kept us updated about when he would be conducting the survey, once it was completed and the expected wait for the report. The Level 3 report itself is of exceptional quality. It contains a lot of detail about the surrounding area and about the property we are wanting to purchase. This survey has saved us a lot of money because although the house looks immaculate and well presented, it is potentially a lemon and super overpriced. I am most grateful for Edwards Genesis’ help and support during this process.Posted on Jack O'SullivanTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Highly recommend these guys. Professional & honest, start to finish.Posted on Herve MugandaTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Really efficient and professional service provided by Edward Genesis team for a H2B redemption report. The appointment was straightforward, and they were happy to accomodate an earlier appointment time for us. They also provided good professional advice on the whole process. 5 stars!Posted on P dRTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Smashing, what else is there to say, chose them!Posted on Ellie DaviesTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I couldn’t recommend John and Edwards Genesis enough! When first getting in contact to get a quote, now to getting the survey results and ringing to ask for advice John has always been really helpful and happy to answer any queries. For a level 2 it only took 3 days to get the report which was very detailed. Also a very fair price compared to other quotes I got.
