About UsHome Buyers Survey in Stapleton
Should we book a HomeBuyer Report, Building Survey or Full Structural Survey on a home in Stapleton and which one is cheaper?
The Full Structural Survey has a new name called a Building Survey, however it is effectively the same level of survey.
If the Stapleton property is a flat, or is an older property, or has been structurally altered, or is built of unusual materials, RICS advise a cheaper HomeBuyer Report.
If you intend to do any major works, RICS recommend you go for a Building Survey. The Building Survey is not as cheap, but it does provide you with a thorough analysis of the Stapleton property's general condition along with advice on defects and maintenance options .

Should I go for a full structural survey when looking into a derelict thirties property in Stapleton as opposed to a HomeBuyer Report?
Sometimes still called a Full Structural Survey by house buyers, it is now defunct and and this most technical survey has been reclassified by RICS and the correct term is now the Building Survey. You should commission the Building Survey for the house you are thinking of buying. A HomeBuyer Report is detailed enough if buying a post fifties Stapleton house of standard building materials i.e. brick/tile. Be aware that a few caveats are integral with any residential survey - RICS chartered surveyor will not be able to open up the structure of the property nor can he/she assess heating installations.
We are purchasing an 1840s house with stone walls. Are there any major matters that we should be aware of?
The sturdy appearance of stone walls may hide serious concerns. Defects such as erosion of pointing joints affect many stone-walled homes. Regular stone describes cut stone, generally forming brick-like courses. These may require less maintenance than more irregularly built walls, but this is heavily dependent on the type of stone used. Stone walls require regular maintenance, such as.
The sheer breadth of varying stone materials can make it difficult for purchasers to correctly identify the particular stone used in the building of a home. Quarries in Stapleton should be able to supply local stone.
Will my survey give a property valuation and cost of rebuild estimate (including the cost of reconstructing permanent outbuildings) and how is it calculated?
The Homebuyer Report contains an independent valuation and a reinstatement (rebuilding) cost estimate included in the cost of the survey. To estimate the market value your chartered surveyor will relate to local property market knowledge as well as other factors relating to the property for instance: accommodation The RICS surveyor will also consider construction methods and will make certain key assumptions, for example there being no significant defects. A Building survey does not include a valuation as standard. A valuation can, however, be added for a small additional fee. Alternatively a Property Valuation Report (PVR) can be carried out. The valuation is also on the basis that there is an absence of any major legal problems like building regulations having been complied. These will be investigated by your conveyancer.
Further Stapleton conjectures, for example the property being insurable, are made in addition to Stapleton environmental problems like nearby railway tracks, which will also be factored in.
