A Mortgage Valuation is NOT<\/strong> a Survey.<\/p>\n The Mortgage Valuation-Surveyor may only spend a brief amount of time at the property, if they even visit at all. Some Mortgage Valuations can be done remotely, through online methods, or simply by driving by the property. Even if the Mortgage Valuation-Surveyor does come to the property, their inspection will be quick, focusing mainly on the quality of the fittings and overall presentation.<\/p>\n Purchasing a property is one of the largest financial commitment most people ever make. A thorough survey can bring attention to defects that were previously unknown or not fully understood in terms of their seriousness. Our surveys allows you to make an informed thoughtful decision, and in some cases, even renegotiate the purchase price. Any defects discovered during the property survey may require significant immediate or future expenses to consider, and in certain situations, you may even decide against buying the property altogether.<\/p>\n[\/vc_column_text][divider line_type=”No Line”][\/vc_column][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_position=”all” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_link_target=”_self” column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” width=”1\/6″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid” bg_image_animation=”none”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row type=”full_width_content” full_screen_row_position=”middle” equal_height=”yes” content_placement=”middle” scene_position=”center” text_color=”dark” text_align=”left” overlay_strength=”0.3″ shape_divider_position=”bottom” bg_image_animation=”none”][vc_column centered_text=”true” column_padding=”padding-10-percent” column_padding_position=”all” background_color=”#f7f7f7″ background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_link_target=”_self” column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” width=”1\/2″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid” bg_image_animation=”none”][nectar_icon icon_family=”linea” icon_style=”border-animation” icon_border_thickness=”2px” icon_color=”Extra-Color-1″ icon_padding=”25px” margin_bottom=”15″ icon_size=”40″ url=”#” icon_linea=”icon-basic-home”][divider line_type=”No Line” custom_height=”10″][vc_column_text max_width=”315″]\n The home buyers report is designed to give an overall opinion on the condition of a property. The report will run through the condition of each area and element of the property. It will also give useful information for legal advisors and will point out any visible defects. Defects which are identified will be highlighted and recommended for further investigation. It is intended only for particular types of home: houses, flats and bungalows which are conventional in type and construction, and apparently in reasonable condition. Advice about repairs and ongoing maintenance will be given.<\/p>\n The homebuyers report is built on an easy to understand \u2018traffic light system\u2019. Each section prompts the surveyor to give a \u2018condition rating\u2019 which is red, amber or green.<\/p>\n[\/vc_column_text]Level 2 Homebuyers Survey<\/strong><\/h4>\n[\/vc_column_text][divider line_type=”No Line” custom_height=”5″][vc_column_text max_width=”350″ css=”.vc_custom_1646452897211{margin-bottom: 40px !important;}”]A HomeBuyer Report is a survey suitable for conventional properties in
