My buyers mortgage survey was done today, if my buyer is having a homebuyers report done would this of happened at the same time or another?
I don't know if they are just having the standard mortgage valuation or if I will be contacted in the future for more visits
The mortgage is with nationwide

I'm afraid I don't know your buyer (at least don't think I do).
So have no way of knowing if they have deiced to have a homebuyers report done, by whom, or when.

OP - it depends on the buyer.0 -
Who is doing the report and who is organising it. I asked my mortgage company for one initially, they had the company doing the valuation call me before they went to quote me how much extra that and a full survey would be, as the mortgage valuation fee only covered just that. It would have been organised by the same people though in my case just as I didn't bother to shop around. In the end I just opted for a valuation though.MFW OP's 2017 #101 £829.32/£5000
MFiT-T4 - #46 £0/£45k to reduce mortgage total
04/16 Mortgage start £153,892.45
MFW 2015 #63 £4229.71/£3000 - old Mortgage0 -
As the man who came today just done a mortgage valuation so I am under the impression my buyer is not having a homebuyers report as I thought nationwide would do both at the same time.
I'm only asking as I have a lot of extra shifts coming up at work and hoping I don't need to take any more time off to stay in and wait for appointments0 -

If the buyer has asked a different surveyor to do a report, Nationswide will not be able to do both at once.
So as I said in post 2:I'm afraid I don't know your buyer (at least don't think I do).

I am in the process of buying my first house.
I got a free valuation survey from the mortgage provider so I paid for an additional Home Buyers Survey from a different company. These were carried out on two different dates.0 -
I think it depends on the buyer. As ours was a seperate date0
