What is the Professional Negotiation Certificate?
Survey findings can change how you see a property. The Professional Negotiation Certificate is a service designed to help buyers take relevant findings into a discussion about their purchase. It gives structure to the information you have gathered, rather than leaving you to make sense of it alone.
Every negotiation is different. A certificate is not a promise of a lower purchase price or a substitute for your own legal and financial advice. It is a way to approach a potentially difficult conversation with more information.
When could it be useful?
- Your survey identifies material defects or repairs you had not anticipated.
- You need a clearer basis for discussing property condition with the seller or agent.
- You want to understand how the survey’s findings may inform your next decision.
Start with the evidence
The most useful conversations begin with a good understanding of the property. If you have not yet arranged a survey, explore our Level 2 survey or Level 3 survey . The right survey level depends on the property and the questions you need answered.
