Property Survey Towcester

The RICS Building Survey is the most thorough assessment among general surveys, encompassing a wide range of building components and aspects. It is suitable for any property, regardless of its type, age, or condition.

For most identified issues, the report gives advice to support you in obtaining accurate cost estimates from builders or service providers for necessary repairs or replacements.

This premium offering, the top service in the RICS Home Survey range, is chosen by clients who want a comprehensive, unbiased, and clear property evaluation, surpassing the standards of RICS HomeBuyer and Condition Reports. The survey requires a surveyor with sufficient expertise to perform a detailed property condition analysis. The report highlights potential or hidden defect risks clearly. The surveyor engages with the client to understand their specific needs before the survey and discusses the findings afterwards. A thorough desktop study provides the surveyor with contextual knowledge of the property’s locality, and the inspection produces a clear, factual report, logically organised and written in straightforward language, distinguishing facts from the surveyor’s views.

Each part includes a ‘traffic light system’; a red signal indicates ‘Beware’, while green means satisfactory.

Should a red code be flagged, straightforward and simple directives are issued, which may imply requiring another survey (from a dedicated company, say) for acquiring a genuine appraisal to rectify or exchange that portion of the building.

Note: Utilities involving electric, gas, oil, water, and drains are inspected visually only, and suitable qualified technicians should be engaged.
