Surveys

Building Surveys and Homebuyers Reports

Buying property is the single largest purchase that most of us make in a lifetime. It is still surprising to find that the majority of property purchasers seem happy to rely on a Building Society Valuation as a statement on the condition of a property.

At Humphreys and Dancer we are able to offer a range of Condition Survey reports for property purchasers:

Limited Condition Report

This report will examine only limited areas of the property about which the buyer might have concerns.

RICS Home Buyers Report and ISVA Home Survey

This report is priced mid-range, is presented in a prescribed format and focuses on urgent and significant matters which may affect value although it can include a lot of other valuable information. It includes a Valuation and Reinstatement cost assessment.

Building Survey

This is a detailed bespoke report suitable for all types of properties providing a full detailed picture of the construction and condition. Particularly suitable for properties of unusual construction or those which are dilapidated or have been extensively altered.
