The fuller derivation this dataset is chartered to grow into (not yet what the figures above are; they are each source's own published figure as read): the median, minimum and maximum published inspection fee across every UK snagging firm that publishes one, by property size band (studio and one-bed flat, two-bed, three-bed, four-bed, five-plus), by region, by accreditation (RICS or RPSA versus unaccredited) and by inspection type (pre-completion inspection under the NHQB regime, post-completion snagging survey, re-inspection); beside it the London and South East premium measured from the firms' own pages rather than asserted, the share of firms that publish a fee at all, and the ratio of an inspection fee to a year of the cheapest snagging app - the comparison that decides the homeowner's purchase and that neither market publishes", "embed": "
