Home Buyer Surveys are suited for more conventional residential properties built within the past 100 years. They provide extensive information about the condition of the property and are ideal if you are buying or selling a house, flat or bungalow built from common building materials and in reasonable condition.
The RICS Home Buyer Survey gives you clear ‘traffic light’ ratings showing the condition of the property, advice for your legal advisors and details of urgent defects, plus a separate market valuation and insurance reinstatement costs, and advice on defects that may affect the value of the property.
We offer two types of residential surveys for people buying a home: a RICS Home Buyer Survey, and a RICS Home Condition Report. Please note that, to avoid any conflict of interest, we do not survey any properties sold by Gibbs Gillespie estate agents. Our surveys will help you:
