Home Buyer Report Banstead

Our specialist home buyer report will give you peace of mind that all damp and timber related issues have been disclosed before you move forward.

When do I need a home buyer report?
Homebuyer reports are a standard part of the purchasing process. They are often commissioned by the buyer in order to uncover any issues that might be expensive to fix further down the line. Lenders will also want to see a homebuyer report in order to ensure the property isn’t likely to lose value further down the line. Sellers can also commission reports in order to reassure buyers and speed up the sales process.
The standard homebuyer report (the RICS Level 2 Home Survey) will uncover certain issues related to the overall condition of the property, but it often won’t be detailed enough to uncover damp and timber problems. Our extensive report will help to cover any blind spots in the reporting, giving you peace of mind that you know exactly what you are purchasing.
Importance of the home buyer report in Banstead
Most homes in the UK are at risk of damp due to the climate and construction methods. While damp proofing measures are widely used to protect against rising damp, these methods aren’t guaranteed. The signs of dampness are pervasive and might not be obvious until the damage is widespread. To help go beyond the surface level inspections, we provide extensive reporting that uses the latest tools and techniques to uncover potential issues.
We can help you to avoid taking on a property with hidden damp or timber issues that could be expensive to fix further down the line. And if you do decide to go ahead with the purchase, you can use the information uncovered to help negotiate a better price, or to request that work is completed before the sale is finalised. We can also provide Guarantee Protection Insurance for a single premium payment, which will give you additional peace of mind that you won’t face unexpected surprises.
What’s included with a home buyer report?
This is a specialist type of home buyer report that looks specifically for the signs of damp and timber damage in a property.

Our Property Care Association qualified surveyors use the latest tools and techniques to investigate the signs of damp.
