What is the difference between a surveyor and a chartered surveyor?

Key differences between a surveyor and a chartered surveyor are:

• Chartered surveyor – Accredited by the RICS (Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors) and can provide reports recognised by lenders and insurers
• Surveyor – Don’t hold RICS accreditation. Fine for an independent survey, but often not accepted by lenders and insurers

That’s why hiring a RICS Chartered Surveyor gives you a higher level of assurance and protection.
