RICS Home Surveys

Whether you’re a first-time buyer or an experienced investor, our residential surveys provide the insights you need. Choose from:

Finding the right survey

If your property is:

  • relatively recently constructed
  • conventionally built
  • appears to be in good condition

then guidelines recommend a Level 2 Home Survey which provides a visual, non-invasive inspection of all reasonably accessible areas, looking out for serious problems that are readily evident. 

If your property is:

  • older
  • run-down
  • is large or has unusual features
  • has been extended or significantly altered
  • or if you’re planning to do any significant work to the property

Then a Level 3 Building Survey will give you a thorough understanding of the structure and condition of the property you’re looking to buy.
