Home Buyer Report Woking
If you’re considering purchasing property in beautiful Woking, you should make sure you know everything there is to know. If your chosen property doesn’t have a damp proofing or timber treatment guarantee, we can help. A home buyer report from Tapco Homedry will mean that you have reassurance from a Property Care Association (PCA) qualified damp and timber surveyor to give you peace of mind in your purchase.
What is a home buyer report?
Before you make an important investment decision like buying property, it’s essential that you have all of the information. A standard Level 2 Home Survey, previously known as the HomeBuyers Survey will only give you so much information. This information can be used to influence the property valuation and could allow you to negotiate a better price. Some properties would benefit from a more in-depth investigation, which is where we can help.
We cover existing issues with the property, evidence of past issues and potential future issues. This can help you to make an informed choice about your purchase. This could save you from the headache of purchasing a property with extensive timber damage or damp issues. You don’t have to risk being caught out by potential problems further down the line. We’ll help you move forward with confidence.
Issues uncovered by a home buyers report
A standard building survey recommended by your bank will look at things like the home structure and the root to identify issues that could increase the risk for the lender. Uncovering these issues is all about ensuring that the lender is protected, but these reports don’t cover everything that could impact the homeowner. It’s important that you take steps to protect your own interests.
Issues with damp and timber damage might not be immediately cause for concern, but they will incur additional expenses to fix. It’s best to have all of the information available to you before making a decision. This is why we also recommend an additional home buyer survey carried out by a Property Care Association (PCA) qualified damp and timber surveyor. This will give you peace of mind that all bases are covered.
What’s included with a home buyer report?
We go a little deeper in our surveys, so you can have reassurance that no issue will be left undiscovered. A standard home survey looks for evidence of subsidence and provides a roof report for reassurance, but these reports rarely uncover issues with basement waterproofing, rising damp, penetrating damp and timber issues that aren’t immediately obvious. Our report will also include future risk factors to be aware of so you can move forward with all of the information you need.
An RICS building survey will not look under floorboards or carpets, which means that these issues could be lurking and waiting to be discovered after you have committed to the property. You can get ahead of these issues with an in-depth report from a damp proofing expert. We can also provide estimates on how much it will cost to remedy these issues, which you can use to negotiate the price of the property.
