RICS Homebuyer Report
If you are purchasing a property you will want to ensure that there aren’t any hidden defects or surprises lurking within. In order to ensure this, you will need to instruct an experienced RICS Chartered Surveyor to complete a thorough survey.
Having an RICS HomeBuyer Report undertaken in advance of your purchase, ensures that a qualified and experienced Chartered Surveyor visits the property, fully inspects it and then finally confirms the findings in a clear and concise report.
Why choose an RICS Homebuyer Report?
An RICS HomeBuyer report will focus on all facets of the property and give the property buyer a full and thorough understanding of the current state of the property, fully outlining any defects or issues that are present.
The RICS HomeBuyer Report classifies any defects that are present within the property in an easy to identify ‘traffic light system’. This condition rating system will enable you to quickly identify items of defect and establish the potential cost implications associated with those defects.
RICS HomeBuyer Report Condition Ratings:
Green: Condition Rating 1 (CR1)
No repair is currently needed. The property must be maintained in the normal way.
Amber: Condition Rating 2 (CR2)
Defects that need repairing or replacing but are not considered to be either serious or urgent.
Red: Condition Rating 3 (CR3)
Defects that are serious and/or need to be repaired, replaced or investigated urgently
