About UsHome Buyers Survey in Sidmouth
Should we go for a HomeBuyer Report, Building Survey or Full Structural Survey for a home in Sidmouth and which one is cheaper?
The Full Structural Survey has been updated to a Building Survey but is basically the same the same survey.
If the Sidmouth property is a flat, or is 100 or more years old, or has been extended or modified, or is of non standard construction, then RICS recommend the cheaper HomeBuyer Report.
If you are planning to do any alterations, RICS advise you commission a Building Survey. The Building Survey is not as cheap however it will give comprehensive details of the Sidmouth property's condition as well as information on defects and maintenance options .

My husband spotted signs of insects in the loft conversion. What can we do?
Buyers in Sidmouth should be aware that there is no legal obligation for a seller to disclose a vermin problem. Pests quite literally come in all shapes and sizes, and can be more difficult to treat than many buyers realise. An affected building may not always be easy to identify, small tunnels in wooded beams may indicate the presence of house longhorn beetles. Treatment for pest problems may include removal of infected furniture. Rather than pulling out, it may be possible to agree a reduction in the purchase price to cover the cost of remedy.
On a Sidmouth HomeBuyer Report what impact can a an red light rating have on 'E8 - Other joinery and finishes' ?
Problems impacting the roof are checked here. These are inspected with the aid of binoculars where appropriate Importantly, the possible use of asbestos components are reported on. Cracked render is an example of this. Matters which require urgent action are highlighted with a 'red' or condition rating of 3. Such issues can have a significant impact on a home's value. The format of the RICS HomeBuyer Report is clear and easy to read, with a minimum of technical jargon. Red, amber and green ratings give purchasers indicate the severity of any defects or points of interest included in the report.
