Home Buyer Report Reigate

Considering buying a new home in Reigate? If this property doesn’t have a damp and timber guarantee, you could be exposing yourself to unnecessary financial risk. Put your mind at ease with the help of Tapco Homedry. Our Property Care Association qualified surveyors will get to the heart of any potential damp or timber issues, so you can move forward with the purchase with confidence.

What is a home buyer report?

Before purchasing a home, you should always commission a professional survey to understand the risk factors present. Even if the home appears fine on the surface, there are hidden problems that could be lurking and waiting to be discovered. The most common type of report is a Level 2 Home Buyers Report, which is often a requirement for most mortgage providers. This type of report will uncover structural issues and common problems such as Japanese knotweed or subsidence.

While these reports are useful, they can miss some important factors. In particular, they are not known for being comprehensive when it comes to damp and timber issues. If you suspect the home you are thinking about purchasing has a damp problem – or if you just want reassurance that no issues have been left uncovered, then we can help. Armed with this information, you can decide to walk away from a bad investment, or to renegotiate the price to take this work into consideration. 

Issues uncovered by a home buyers report

Before you can determine if a property is worth the asking price, you need to know everything there is to know about the condition of the property. This simple step will help you to avoid the financial risk of having to pay for these repairs after the sale is complete. Lenders will also want to see the results of the home buyer report, as this will help them to manage their risk.

While the standard report will look at factors such as subsidence and the condition of the roof, you can take this one step further with a damp and timber guarantee. And with a single insurance premium, you can get Guarantee Protection Insurance (GPI) for added peace of mind. Our surveys are carried out by Property Care Association (PCA) qualified surveyors. They are trained to be able to to identify issues like dry rot, wet rot, woodworm and all forms and damp and condensation issues.

What’s included with a home buyer report?

The standard home buyer report won’t look under carpets or lift floorboards. This means that large sections of the property will be a complete mystery, waiting until after you have moved in to be uncovered. For peace of mind ahead of your purchase, you can get all of the information that is relevant to the property. This will help you to decide if you should walk away from a bad investment, or negotiate a better price. 

If you’re purchasing property in Reigate, you can protect your interests with this simple step. Armed with all of the information related to the condition of the property, you can make an informed choice.
