Home Buyer Report Hammersmith
Thinking about buying a home in Hammersmith? Before making this important decision, make sure you have all of the information you need to make an informed choice. Our extended home buyer report will uncover any potential issues with damp or water ingress, so you can move forward with your property purchase with confidence. Get in touch with Tapco Homedry today to learn more about how our home buyer survey can help to safeguard your investment.
Why should I buy a home buyer report?
Home buyer reports are an essential part of purchasing a new home. Many lenders will require one, as this is often used to determine the value of the property, and therefore how much you can borrow. For homes in generally good condition, advice is often to choose a RICS Level 2 Home Buyer Report, but there are some limitations with this report that you should be aware of. This report does not uncover signs of damp and water ingress, so you might be exposed to additional risk.
With an extended home buyer report from Tapco Homedry, you’ll have the peace of mind knowing that any structural issues related to damp and water ingress will be completely disclosed. It’s not uncommon for homeowners to be completely unaware they are living with a damp problem, so it could be just as much a surprise to the seller. With our help, you can make an informed choice about whether to move forward with your property purchase plans.
Importance of the home buyer report in Hammersmith
Homes in Hammersmith are at increased risk of damp and timber damage due to the local climate and the age of properties in the area. While a home might look visually fine, the signs of damp are often concealed until the damage is more extensive. To save yourself the trouble of purchasing a home with a hidden damp or timber problem, trust Tapco Homedry to help get to the bottom of any potential issue.
Our PCA-qualified surveyors will go above and beyond to uncover the potential signs of damp in the home you are hoping to purchase. Discovering damp in a property doesn’t have to mean that you walk away from the purchase, but it might influence the negotiating process. For example, you might negotiate the price down, or you might request that repairs are completed before the sale is completed.
What does a damp survey look for?
A standard home buyer report will look at the general condition of the property, but our damp and timber guarantee takes this even further. We look for the signs of past and present damp and moisture ingress issues. We’ll look under carpets and floorboards and in crawlspaces and basements to identify the common signs that a damp proof course has failed. We also use the latest tools and techniques to identify the cause of the problem. We can also provide prospective buyers with information about how much they can expect the problem will cost to fix, and this can be incredibly useful for the negotiating process.
