Choosing a Surveyor

Hello,
When I select my flat for purchase I intend to ask for a survey report, probably a Homebuyer's Survey.
I looked at the RICS recommendations and am faced with a long list of surveyors, yet no customer reviews.
How do I select a good local surveyor?
Thanks.
Ps. I know that surveys regarding flats are debatable, but I would like a qualified opinion.

Ring several and ask for quotes. See how helpful they seem. Ask about any specific issues you have with the property and see how understanding/helpful they are.
Look at their website.

Your lender (presuming you have one) can also offer or suggest one. Possibly with a discount as they'll be doing a valuation and might combine the 2.2024 wins: *must start comping again!*0
