Description

Role Overview

This role consists of basic tasks and would be more suited towards a junior surveyor.

Tasks

The surveyors will be required to carry out basic measurement detail on properties where a tenant has put an application in to purchase their dwelling under the Right To Buy scheme. The Property type is as follows:

Houses

- House sale plans need to show the extents of any garden space being sold with the house, details of their boundaries, and allocating responsibility for maintaining those boundaries.

What to look out for:

The valuers will identify issues that need referring to us and will be noted in their report. You will need to measure where these are and show them on your plan. These include:
- Retaining walls
- Shared accesses
- Access over unadopted roads or footpaths
- Access rights for neighbours
- Land encroachments or unclear boundaries.
- Assign boundary responsibility through the standard convention.

Cottages

Cottages resemble houses but comprise of two flats. As well as the details we look for in houses these include:
- Allocating garden space for each tenant
- Allocating external stores
- Showing where in the property the flat lies

Shared passageways

These are houses with an open passageway through to the back garden. As well as the details for regular houses, these include internal measurements to confirm the extents of the first floor over the passageway.

Flats

Flats will require two plans. One like the cottage plan, and an internal floor plan. The floor plan will include:
- The shape, size and name of each room.
- The location and number of any stairs.
- The location and size of doors.
- Wall thicknesses are assumed through standard convention.

Additional Information

We expect the Surveyor to be reimbursed for all mileage within the terms of LCC policy and we can agree set fees in line with this policy.

We expect between 7 to 10 properties to be visited per day once fully operational - mileage will be paid.

On occasion it might be required for a survey to take part early evening but this would be kept to a minimum.

The surveyor will need to keep accurate records of mileage and time keeping as this needs to be entered onto our system by an admin assistant to process payment.

We expect that initial training be provided and an induction take place into Leeds City Council's Policies and Values. This would take place in Merrion House potentially.

Depending on property specifics, we often have a pre-existing plan layout; however sometimes this may not be available which requires sketching out - samples have been attached for review or discussion.

Ideally, while it would benefit if you could draw up plans, this is not essential as I am exploring building a team in Merrion.

I have included a process map for your consideration but not for external sharing - If you have any queries regarding this please give me a call.

I have included examples of location plans, sketches, and typical floor plans completed showing extent surveying required.
