Homebuyer Report Garstang

Homebuyer Reports receive endorsement from RICS for dwellings erected recently, with typical construction techniques and presenting as well-maintained.

Good condition means moving in is possible with nothing beyond superficial restoration, like updating the interiors.

Hence, Homebuyer Reports are usually apt for buildings from the 1920s until the current era, without modifications, maintained sufficiently, and no bigger than five bedrooms.

The document provides clear guidance, avoiding extensive technical details. Essential problems are pointed out, but smaller features like decoration and surface damage aren’t addressed thoroughly. 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: Electric, gas, oil, water, and drainage facilities are solely visually examined, and the corresponding accredited specialists need to be appointed.
