When it comes to property surveys, trust is everything. Whether you're purchasing a century-old cottage or a brand-new build, you need reliable advice from experts who know what to look for—and who care about getting it right. At Knott Brothers, every survey should do more than just tick boxes. It should empower our clients to make informed, confident decisions. That’s why trust isn’t just something we talk about—it’s something we earn, one survey at a time.

Buying your first home is one of life’s most exciting milestones, but it can also be one of the most overwhelming. While it’s easy to fall in love with a property's charm and potential, many first-time buyers unknowingly overlook serious structural and cosmetic issues. Without a professional survey, these hidden problems can become costly regrets in the long run. At Knott Brothers, we help buyers across Leicestershire and beyond make informed property decisions. In this blog, we explore some of the most common problems that first-time buyers tend to miss — and explain how a RICS Home Survey or Accredited Snagging Survey can help protect your investment.
