RICS HomeBuyers Reports, A Surveyors Perspective
There is a huge difference between a mortgage survey (often called a report on valuation) and an RICS HomeBuyers Report. The first is on behalf of the lender to check the value of your new home and the latter to check its condition.
A fact that you can't ignore is that on average homebuyers spend £5750* on repairs once moved into their new home!
This is often down to not getting a proper survey done before signing on the dotted line. Spending money now can save you thousands further on down the line.Robin Wells BSc (Hons) MA MRICS

Remember a valuation is not a Survey. Ask for a HomeBuyers Report
A home is the most expensive purchase most people ever make. As an owner you will benefit from expert advice on the condition of your property – whether you plan to live in it, rent it out or sell it.
During an RICS HomeBuyer Report an RICS professional conducts an in-depth visual inspection of the property. Their report provides an expert account of the property’s condition and highlights any problems in clear and easy to understand ‘traffic light’ ratings.
