When do I need a home buyer report?
Home buyer reports are a standard part of the purchasing process and will likely be required in order to secure a mortgage. The standard home buyer report is often used by prospective buyers to ensure they have a comprehensive view of the property they are buying. Lenders might also ask for a survey to be completed in order to protect their own interests. And finally, sellers might secure a survey in order to offer renaissance to speed up the sale process.
You might be familiar with the RICS Level 2 Home Survey, which provides a visual inspection of the general condition of a property. This might highlight damp and timber damage if this is obvious to the naked eye, but the surveyor won’t go looking for these factors. For added peace of mind, we recommend a specialist damp and timber guarantee, which will allow you to make an informed decision about whether to move forward with the purchase.
Importance of the home buyer report in Camberley
The majority of homes in the UK are at risk of damp damage due to the climate. While homes often have damp proofing in place, these methods are known to fail, and this failure might not always be obvious until the damage is widespread. If you purchase a property without knowing the extent of the damage, you could be left with a hefty bill to put things right. By getting ahead of these issues, you can protect your financial interests.
Our PCA-qualified surveyors will use the latest tools and techniques to help get to the bottom of any damp and timber issues. Our home buyer survey is more in-depth than the standard Level 2 survey, which will give you the information you need to make an informed choice. You can also protect your interests with Guarantee Protection Insurance for a single premium payment. This will give you peace of mind that you know exactly what you are purchasing.


What’s included with a home buyer report?
Our home buyer report looks specifically for signs of damp, condensation and timber damage. It is more thorough than other reports, but it should be used alongside more general reports to ensure nothing remains uncovered.
We’ll look for signs of past, present and potential damp damage so that you know if there are issues you need to deal with. We look for evidence of rising damp, penetrating damp, condensation problems, wet rot, dry rot and more. This could mean lifting floorboards or looking under carpets, which is more extensive than anything a standard surveyor would do.
