About Us

Home Buyers Survey in Crook

HomeBuyer Report

Should we go for a HomeBuyer Report, Full Structural Survey or Building Survey on a home in Crook and which is the cheapest?

The Full Structural Survey has changed its name to a Building Survey, however it is effectively the same.

If the Crook property is a flat or maisonette, or is over 100 years old, or has been extended or modified, or is of non standard construction, then RICS recommend a cheaper HomeBuyer Report.

If you are planning to make substantial modifications, RICS recommend you choose a Building Survey. This more detailed survey is less cheap, however it will provide you with an in-depth analysis of the Crook property's condition as well as advice on defects as well as maintenance options .

Building Surveys on houses

What are the benefits for doing the full structural survey instead of a HomeBuyer Report?

Full Structural Surveys don't actually exist now Building Survey has now superseded it. If buying an altered Crook house like a period house, it is the most appropriate RICS survey. It should outline comprehensive and crucial professional advice in relation to the property's standard of construction and repair in conjunction with any needs for future maintenance, following a thorough inspection of the accessible parts.

There will be one or two no go areas with the survey insofar as a RICS surveyor is not able to open up the fabric of the of the Crook property e.g. removing roof space contents. Boundary walls and fences will also be surveyed.

House Prices

I am going to acquire a detached house in Crook (DH7). The asking price is £142, 407. What considerations will a Crook RICS surveyor allow for on a property valuation report ?

There is a vast array of things that can affect property values from view to the amount of accommodation it offers. It is useful to compare with house values achieved in the area for similar houses.

The means house prices registered between Jul and Oct 2012 was £128, 107, which is £14, 300 less than the asking price. 38, Kipling Way, Crook, County Durham, County Durham, DL15 9AJ a detached home sold for £173, 245 .

An impartial way to get a professional property valuation is to get a Homebuyer Report which includes a Property Valuation Report (PVR) as an inclusive part. A RICS surveyor will be part of the Valuer Registration Scheme. The scheme is intended to raise consumer confidence and improves standards.

A surveyor will always go to the house as well as considering the myriad of area issues that can impact on house prices.
