HOMEBUYERS REPORT (Level 2)

This service is delivered in accordance with the Home survey standard (1st edition) RICS professional statement and the RPSA Survey Inspection and Reporting Standards. It is equivalent to survey Level 2 in accordance with your personal requirements and specific instructions.

This level of service is for you if you are seeking a professional opinion at an economic price. It is, therefore, less comprehensive than a level three service. The focus is on assessing the general condition of the main elements of a property.

This intermediate level of service includes an extensive visual inspection of the building, its services and grounds, but still without tests. Concealed areas normally opened or used by the occupiers are inspected if it is safe to do so (typical examples include roof spaces, basements and cellars).

The report objectively describes the condition of the different elements and provides an assessment of the relative importance of the defects/problems.

At this level, although it is concise, the report does include advice about repairs and any ongoing maintenance issues. A survey level two service may, if identified as needed result in referrals for further investigations.

This level of service suits a broader range of conventionally built properties.

This level of service is unlikely to suit:

properties in neglected condition. In such cases, a survey level two service will often result in referrals for further investigations, an outcome that we do not want you to be disappointed with.  

Where you are planning to carry out extensive repair and refurbishment work in the future, we will give advice on suitable additional services.
