Find out more about what the property surveys at Chassen House Building Surveyors entail and what you can come to expect.
RICS SURVEY LEVEL 2
The Home Survey Level 2 is generally the most appropriate survey for the majority of properties in the UK.
This level of survey spotlights urgent matters that have a substantial effect on the value of the property and need attending to or further investigation.
The survey includes a physical inspection of the property and a report based on the inspection that aims to give you professional advice to:
-
make an informed decision on whether to continue with the purchase
-
take into account any repairs or replacements the property needs, and
-
consider what further advice you should take before committing to purchasing the property.
RICS SURVEY LEVEL 3
The Level 3 Home Survey is the most comprehensive evaluation of a property’s condition and construction. It is recommended for older, less conventional homes or homes that have undergone significant building works or alterations.
This level of survey includes a thorough inspection of the property and a detailed report based on the inspection that aims to give you professional advice to:
help you make a reasoned and informed decision when purchasing the property, or when planning for repairs, maintenance or upgrades
provide detailed advice on condition
describe the identifiable risk of potential or hidden defects
propose the most probable cause(s) of any defects found and
where practicable and agreed, provide estimates of costs and likely timescales for any identified repairs and necessary work.
