The HomeBuyer Report (HBR), previously known as HomeBuyer Survey and Valuation, is by far our most popular product. Most clients that call us expect that they need a building survey or structural survey and after discussing their particular house, they are delighted that we can save them hundreds of pounds by having the Homebuyer Report.
This is a form of report which is designed for houses built since 1900, although in some cases it may be suitable for older properties. This is presented in an easy to read format with standard headings and the minimum of technical jargon. It is an economy report and therefore less costly and less detailed than a Building Survey.
The HomeBuyer Report will enable you to: - Make a reasoned and informed judgement on whether or not to proceed with the purchase.
- Access whether or not the property is a reasonable purchase at the agreed price.
- Be clear what decisions and actions should be taken before contracts are exchanged.
The HomeBuyer Report also provides an insurance figure, so you can obtain competitive quotations for buildings insurance. Fee levels from area to area do vary and some surveyors are able to offer discounts in quieter periods.
The HomeBuyer Report now includes condition ratings to enable the purchaser to clearly see which works are required and how soon they should be carried out.
A HomeBuyer Report is carried out in accordance with RICS Standard Terms of Engagement produced by The Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors (RICS).
The HomeBuyer Report cost starts at £240 (See Surveyors fees) and we would hope to arrange an inspection within a few days. As a guide, call us on Monday and we would hope to inspect the property within a couple of days.
If you do not require a valuation within your HomeBuyer Survey, then let us know and we may able to reduce your survey cost even further than our competitive fee scale.
