What is a home buyer report?
A home buyer report is recommended before purchasing any property. It can get confusing for consumers as there are so many available. The standard Level 2 Home Buyer Survey is often recommended by lenders, and this may be used as part of their valuation of the property. While this is comprehensive, it could miss some important factors related to damp and timber health.
With our home buyer report, you’ll have the reassurance of our Property Care Association (PCA) qualified damp and timber surveyors. They will go above and beyond to ensure that no issue remains uncovered. Damp and timber problems can be costly to fix the longer they are left, so if you don’t want to face any unexpected bills after purchasing a new home, it’s a good idea to make sure you commission your own damp and timber survey.
Issues uncovered by a home buyers report
The standard home buyer report can help to uncover issues that will impact the structure and therefore the value of the property. This is why lenders will often ask for a survey, as it helps to manage their risk and avoid lending on a property that could face collapse. These reports look for issues like roof problems and subsidence. It will often miss issues like damp and timber damage, unless they are very obvious.
Damp and timber damage can be very costly to fix if they are left untreated. To avoid this unexpected cost, our home buyer report will give you all of the information you need to make an informed choice. Our PCA-qualified damp surveyors know exactly what to look for when surveying a property. When you have all of the information, you can make an informed choice.


What’s included with a home buyer report?
With the Level 2 Home Buyers report, the surveyor is looking for specific risk factors including subsidence and Japanese knotweed. Unless damp is obvious, it won’t be included in the report. Timber damage is often missed because it would require looking under floorboards and lifting carpet. To help protect yourself from hidden property damage, we recommend working with our surveyors to get a complete picture of the property condition.
Our home buyer report will go above and beyond the usual reporting to ensure no issue remains hidden. This can reframe the price negotiations on the property, as you’ll be armed with all of the information. With a single premium payment, you can even enjoy Guaranteed Protection Insurance (GPI) for added peace of mind. You might not want to walk away from the property, but you might want to request a lower price to account for the additional work required to put things right.
