Home Buyers Survey in South Shields

RICS Level 2 Survey

Should I get a RICS Level 2 Survey, Full Structural Survey or RICS Level 3 Survey on a property in South Shields and which one would be cheaper?

The Full Structural Survey has been renamed by RICS as a RICS Level 3 Survey, although it is effectively the same level of survey.

If the South Shields property is an apartment, or is over 100 years old, or has been structurally modified, or is built of unusual materials (e.g. timber frame), RICS recommend the cheaper RICS Level 2 Survey.

If you are planning to do any substantial modifications, you should you choose a RICS Level 3 Survey. This more detailed survey is not as cheap as a RICS Level 2 Survey however it does provide you with comprehensive details of the South Shields property's state of repair in addition to more detailed advice on defects and maintenance options .

Damage resulting from flooding

Will the RICS Level 2 Survey check signs of flood damage?

Flooding has blighted the lives of thousands of homeowners in South Shields and across the country, and insurance premiums. can be significantly affected for residences in flood-risk areas. Your RICS surveyor may use several methods to determine if the home in question is in danger. Flood water can enter a property through a number of routes, including air bricks, poorly fitted doors and windows, and seepage through external walls. Less expensive preventative measures include door guards. Also included on Environment Agency's flood alert are details of local rivers and other bodies of water prone to flooding.
