We offer RICS Home Survey Level 3 reports. These reports are great if you're looking for an in-depth analysis of the condition of the property you want to buy. We will visit the property and carry out an internal and external inspection. The results are presented to customers in an in-depth report.
We will talk you through the results and explain anything you may be unsure of. We use clear language so your report will be easy to understand. We don't rush our inspections and always make sure to provide as much detail as possible. We aim to provide customers with their reports within 3 working days of the inspection being carried out.
