Home Condition Surveys
Our nationwide team of surveyors can carry out the Home Condition Survey which provides the same level of in-depth inspection as a building survey, but uses a simple and clear presentation style with a 1, 2, 3 rating system to ensure that you can easily identify the most serious issues. Also included in the Home Condition Survey are a number of advice sheets giving information on how to deal with some of the more common problems that have been found at the property. For further information or to obtain a quote, please contact us on 08714 237189 or email info@rpsa.org.uk
An HCS will tell you all you need to know about the property you are looking to purchase in an easily understood way. By having this information, buyers can often negotiate the price of the property down by 5 – 10 times the cost of the survey. To download a sample survey, please click here.
It will cover:
- ·Building Condition and Defects
- ·Structural movement
- ·Damp, rot and woodworm
- ·Heating, drains and electrical services
