Essentially the valuation safeguards the lender by confirming value and drawing attention to critical defects alone.
Independent advice through a buyer-commissioned survey is recommended alongside the mandatory mortgage valuation.
Three main levels of RICS Home Survey currently exist and each is designed for different property types and buyer needs.
The Condition Report at Level One delivers an elementary summary of the dwelling’s state through a straightforward colour-coded rating. Buyers of typical modern or well-kept houses may find Level One sufficient though it contains neither repair advice nor a valuation.
Most purchasers of ordinary residential property opt for the Level Two survey known as the HomeBuyer Report. This survey goes deeper than the basic Condition Report offering guidance on problems plus both a valuation and a rebuild cost for insurance. Surveyors retain the red amber green system while providing richer explanations that clarify the practical consequences of the findings.
Buyers considering aged substantial or unconventional properties are usually directed towards the Level Three Building Survey. The report is based on an exhaustive inspection and delivers substantial advice covering defects the required repairs and long-term maintenance.
Valuation figures are omitted from the standard Level Three report but can be incorporated if the buyer asks for them. Funds are rarely released until the lender has obtained and reviewed its own valuation report. Because the valuation is commissioned by the lender its focus remains the security of the advance rather than the buyer’s wider concerns. Buyers who treat the valuation as a full survey risk overlooking important condition issues that the report does not address.
Independent reports can highlight defects with implications for comfort ongoing expense or the buyer’s ultimate choice to continue. How much a buyer pays depends on the level of report the characteristics of the property and the surveyor’s pricing approach. Condition Reports at Level One tend to be the most affordable whereas Building Surveys at Level Three attract higher charges because of the extra work required. Most surveyors will discuss the property with the client beforehand so that the most appropriate level can be recommended.
Buyers are encouraged to scrutinise the findings and obtain clarification wherever the meaning or implications are uncertain. Significant problems can justify a request for a price reduction or for the vendor to carry out repairs prior to exchange of contracts. There are instances in which survey findings prompt the buyer to walk away from the deal.
Choosing the correct survey level and treating the findings seriously can save buyers from unexpected repair bills and future disappointment. A thorough professional survey continues to provide one of the strongest sources of confidence for anyone acquiring residential property in Britain.
