Coverage & Fees

West Country Home Finders concentrates on property searches within Devon but would look to accommodate a client’s brief if it required a search to be extended into the adjoining counties of Dorset, Cornwall or Somerset.

Once West Country Home Finders has been formally instructed in writing, there is a registration fee of £250 which covers the time and costs regarding initial searches, phone calls, postage (etc) for a period of 30 days. This must be paid in full prior to the commencement of our service.

The fee for viewing an individual property is £45 plus 50p/mile to cover fuel costs (all costs are agreed prior to any viewing being undertaken). This fee includes a detailed report giving an assessment of the property (general condition inside and out, outbuildings, including potential for redevelopment, gardens, land, etc) and details of the local area: schools, amenities, access to road and rail links, public footpaths, distance to the coast, etc.

If, following receipt of our unbiased report, you would like to view the property for yourself, West Country Home Finders can arrange local accommodation for you providing detailed maps and directions. This is included in the initial registration fee.
