Survey Level Two: RICS HomeBuyer Report (HBR)
This survey is most suitable for conventional properties which are in reasonable condition. The report gives you more detailed information and provides the choice of either a survey or a survey & valuation.
1. The Home Buyers Report (survey)
The RICS Home Buyer’s Report describes the condition of the property, identifies any risks and potential legal issues and highlights any urgent defects. It uses simple ‘traffic light’ ratings to clearly identify the condition of the key elements of the property. It also includes advice on defects that may affect the property with repairs, and ongoing maintenance advice
2. HomeBuyer Report (survey & valuation)
This includes all the features of the RICS Home Buyer’s Report, plus a market valuation and insurance rebuild costs. It also includes advice on defects that may affect the value of the property with repairs, and ongoing maintenance advice
The report uses the RICS published template in their fixed format. To view a sample Home Buyers Report, please click here:-
