Same-Day: Consultation Before Buying a House
Urgent same-day call before viewing or offering on a house
Service Description
Booked the second viewing for this afternoon? Negotiating an offer today? This is the urgent version of my standard pre-purchase consultation, available the same working day, subject to availability. A 30-minute Zoom call with me (Níall, an architect with 17+ years' experience). Send me the address and a few photos when you book, and I'll come on the call ready to talk through: - What I'd worry about if I were buying this house - Whether your plans for it are realistic on your budget and timescale - Likely planning and building regulations issues - What questions to ask the seller or your surveyor Available Monday to Friday, 09:30 – 17:00 only, subject to availability. This is a non-refundable urgent slot. Once booked, the fee is not refundable, including if you need to cancel or reschedule. For non-urgent enquiries, the standard £150 consultation offers more flexibility on timing and a 48-hour cancellation window. No design drawings or written reports are produced — the deliverable is the call itself, plus a short summary email afterwards.
