What is a homebuyer’s survey?
A homebuyer’s survey and valuation report refer to a specific type of investigation carried out when you are wanting to purchase a property. It is a more detailed survey compared to a mortgage valuation and can help you to understand more about the property’s overall condition.
Our professional team of chartered surveyors will evaluate and gather information on the following:
The property’s overall condition, its current value in the property market and the future of its sale prospects
A list of any items that may require immediate attention or that may affect the value either now or in future years
Any matters with legal importance
Any health and safety issues that need addressing
What is a residential building survey?
A residential building survey, on the other hand, refers to the most detailed kind of property inspection available. This kind of report varies from a homebuyer’s survey as it details more information regarding the property’s condition and structure.
A residential building survey provides in-depth knowledge about:
Any issues with the building
The structure of the roof
Any problems relating to timber, damp, or infestations that may need specialist care or removal
Grounds, outbuildings, and property boundaries
The overall condition of the property including external parts
A list of consequences of any newly discovered problems during the carrying out of the survey
Impressions of water supply and water drainage
