Home Buyers Survey in Thorpe Astley

RICS Level 2 Survey

Should I have a RICS Level 2 Survey, Full Structural Survey or RICS Level 3 Survey for a property in Thorpe Astley and which is cheaper?

The Full Structural Survey has been updated to a RICS Level 3 Survey, although it is basically the same the same survey.

If the Thorpe Astley property is an apartment, or is a period property, or has been substantially modified, or is built of unusual materials, RICS advise the cheaper RICS Level 2 Survey.

If you are planning to do any alterations, it would be better that you select a RICS Level 3 Survey. This survey is less cheap, however it will offer a more detailed analysis of the Thorpe Astley property's state of repair as well as an opinion on defects and maintenance options .

Asbestos roof tiles

The seller has mentioned that there could be powdery asbestos wallpaper in the house. Why would there be asbestos, is it dangerous and does the survey look at this?

Asbestos is a pernicious fibrous material. Some types are found in the building materials including asbestos blocks. Its use is widespread, for example - as it has excellent fire retarding qualities and it may be found in asbestos packing in stud walls.

All forms including white ( Chrysotile) are ultimately hazardous and might lead to lung cancer or scarring of the lung if inhaled over sustained periods. Should you find asbestos, you should be careful never to displace it and expert advice must be taken immediately.

Surveyors do not tell you whether there is asbestos on a Thorpe Astley survey. Your Thorpe Astley surveyor should mention potential asbestos and will offer advice.

Damage resulting from flooding

When purchasing in Thorpe Astley, should we be worried about a flood risk, and will the RICS Level 2 Survey inquire into flooding damage?

The impact of flooding, both in the region of Thorpe Astley and nationwide, is a serious concern for residents, and home buyers and owners are understandably concerned. It is strongly recommended that action is taken, before flooding begins.

Flooding can increase the likelihood of water entering a property in Thorpe Astley, such as via air bricks. The survey report will also include details of any evidence of historical flooding, and may comment generally about the area's propensity to flood. The RICS surveyor may ask the current owner about historical floods, although the result of these enquires should be treated as a guide only.
