• RICS Level 3 Survey

Formerly known as a Full Structural Survey, the Building Survey is an extensive non-invasive inspection and detailed report designed to give you the best possible advice on the condition of the property including any defects and necessary repairs. This type of survey is most suitable for older and larger properties, or those that have undergone major alterations.

• RICS Level 2 Survey

Easily the most popular survey among home buyers, the HomeBuyer Report is based on a mid-level investigation of visible and accessible building elements to provide you with a good knowledge of the property’s condition, highlighting urgent defects or issues that need immediate attention. Modern properties of standard construction are most suited to this type of survey.

• RICS Level 1 Survey

The Condition Report is a basic building survey, designed to give a clear and concise assessment of the property’s condition at the time of inspection, including a summary of the key risks associated with the current state of repair. The report provides an overview to help purchasers understand what they are buying including any urgent defects that may need to be addressed before contracts are exchanged.
