RICS Home Survey Level 3 (Building Survey)
Previously called a ‘Structural Survey and later a Building Survey’, the RICS Home Survey Level 3 is essential for larger or older properties, or if you’re planning major works. This is the most comprehensive pre-purchase report and it will provide you with an in-depth analysis of the property's condition. The RICS Home Survey Level 3 will:
Help you make a reasoned and informed decision when purchasing the property, or when planning for repairs, maintenance, or upgrading the property
Provide detailed advice on the condition
Describe the identifiable risk of potential or hidden defects
Where possible and previously agreed, provide an estimate of costs for identified repairs, and
Make recommendations as to any further actions or advice which needs to be obtained before committing to purchase.
An RICS Home Survey Level 3 doesn't include a market valuation as standard, however, this as well as a reinstatement cost assessment can be provided if required.
If you would like to see a sample report, please don’t hesitate to get in contact.
