A PPA is a limited format appraisal of a property. The property will be inspected by a surveyor and a visual walk through of internal and external accessible areas undertaken.
A report will be prepared giving a general overview of the property only.
These sorts of appraisals are generally only suitable for experienced property purchasers and developers who understand the full property purchase experience and simply want a surveyor’s general appraisal of a property. We would not recommend a PPA for general members of the public buying a new home.

These reports are often required following a mortgage valuation or less through report. They are also suitable for property owners seeking advise about there own home.
