RICS Home Survey Level 2

At Steren Surveyors we utilise the RICS Homebuyer Level 2 survey which is a concise, user-friendly report provided in a standardised format that ensures a thorough inspection is undertaken and that the surveyor looks at all sections of the property that are readily visible or accessible.

This survey identifies significant defects, readily apparent potential hazards and essential repairs and aims to reassure the client of such areas of concern using a ‘traffic light’ condition rating system.

The RICS homebuyer Report is commonly recommended for post-1960s, conventional homes that are in a reasonable condition and that have not been significantly altered or extended since original construction.

RICS Home Survey Level 3

This survey offers a more in-depth and comprehensive inspection and report than that offered by the RICS Homebuyer Report, incorporating detailed building pathology and explanations of any significant defects to the main structure, outbuildings, and related grounds.

A guide to cost implications for further investigations and remedial works is also included to help clients better understand any significant financial implications they may be committing to upon purchase.

Furthermore, the client will be advised regarding potential legal issues and give guidance on the value, including a range of appendices providing additional relevant information.

The RICS Building Survey is commonly recommended for older properties, listed buildings, non-traditional constructions and heavily extended constructions.
