Many people choose to undertake a snagging survey to detect any minor and major defects or unfinished work on a new property.
When you are buying a new build home, especially off-plan, snagging is a vital step to purchasing your property. There are enormous demands on property developers and builders to meet tight and strict deadlines. This can unfortunately result in defects. A snagging survey identifies these early.
