Homebuyer Report Herefordshire

Endorsed by RICS, Homebuyer Reports are ideal for houses built recently, employing standard building practices and looking to be in good condition.

Good condition signifies that one can move into the home requiring no more than surface-level fixing up, for instance, repainting.

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 assessment presents plain advice, bypassing drawn-out specialised expositions. 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.

Whenever a red rating is emphasised, uncomplicated and direct guidance is furnished, which might necessitate an extra report (for instance, from a professional entity) enabling a realistic estimation for correcting or replacing that aspect of the property.

Note: Systems for electricity, gas, oil, water, and drainage are only looked at visually, and relevant competent experts must be appointed.
