Home Buyer Report Weybridge
Thinking about purchasing property in Weybridge? Before you make a final decision, make sure you’ve covered all of your bases. You could leave yourself open to financial risk if you don’t get the full picture of what you are purchasing. Tapco Homedry can help support the home buying process with damp and timber surveys that go beyond the standard home survey. Move forward with your home purchase with confidence that you have a complete picture.
What is a home buyer report?
There are lots of different types of home buyer reports available, often focusing on different areas of interest. These might be commissioned by the buyer to uncover any potential issues, or they could be commissioned by the seller to offer added reassurance and ensure quick sale. The most common home buyer report is the Level 2 Home Buyer Report, which is often a requirement for lenders before they will make a final decision on your mortgage.
If you are thinking about buying property in Weybridge, you should be aware of the risk of damp and timber damage. These issues might not be raised on a Level 2 Home Buyer Report, so you might only discover these after the purchase is finalised. Damp and timber damage can lead to additional costs, so it’s helpful to know what you are purchasing before making a final decision. This knowledge can help you to make an informed decision about your home purchase.
Importance of the home buyer report in Weybridge
Homes in the UK are at increased risk of damp and timber damage due to the construction methods and climate. Homes could be at risk of damage including rising damp, penetrating damp, condensation and damp related timber damage such as dry rot, wet rot and woodworm. With the help of our damp and timber guarantee reports, you can make an informed decision about your home purchase.
The Tapco Homedry team of specialist surveyors carry out an extensive review of the property that will go beyond the basics and look for signs of present and past damp damage. These might be issues that the current homeowner is completely unaware of, or they might be attempting to downplay the presence of these issues. With all of the information available, you can decide to walk away, lower your offer or even negotiate for the work to be completed before purchase.
What’s included with a home buyer report?
A common issue with the Level 2 Home Buyer Report is that it looks for obvious signs of structural damage and for issues such as Japanese knotweed, but surveyors aren’t looking specifically for damp and timber issues.
Our surveyors are qualified to the standards of the Property Care Association (PCA), which means they know what to look for. This might include looking under carpet or lifting floorboards in order to find signs of damage.
This kind of clarity and insight can be invaluable when it comes to making a purchase decision, as it can help you to avoid taking on the burden of a property with lots of hidden damage. With a single premium payment, you can also enjoy Guarantee Protection Insurance.
