After paying for a full one and the seller selling to someone else, not needing a mortgage, we used a structural engineer walking around. Learnt tons about what to look for. He totally condemned one house. Also had a builder friend tag along as well. Will probably do the same later this year.
Glad Phil's tips could help! Remember, with these types of surveys, always get a second opinion. Connect with a surveyor here: www.moveiq.co.uk/free-quotes/surveyors

I'll be getting the Full Structural Survey, thanks for the advice!

Looking good Phil!
Hope you found this advice helpful Susie!
I've read places saying a survey is optional and up to the buyer... But surely for the sake of a few hundred pounds it would be silly not to get one?
Agreed! Spending money early on could help you save in the long-run, particularly if the property needs significant work.
Mandatory in Scotland.. part of a home buyers report since 2008.. vendor must provide one..
What about when buying an end unit Townhouse with a fenced in yard. Would you still recommend a survey be completed?

Are these different types of surveys also the same for the U.S.?
Sorry but we are unable to advise on the U.S. If you check with a local Real Estate Agent they will be able to advise you.
we had level 3 survey £800-no estimates,should we go back to them?
If you are not happy with your survey then yes you should speak to the surveyor who conducted it.
