RICS Level 2 Home Surveys in Birmingham & Across the UK

For prospective homeowners in Birmingham and across the UK, ensuring the property you’re considering is in sound condition is important. The Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors (RICS) provides a Level 2 Home Survey, commonly known as a HomeBuyer Report, which offers an in-depth examination of a property’s condition, tailored to meet UK standards and regulations.

What is an RICS Level 2 Home Survey?

An RICS Level 2 Home Survey is designed for conventional properties that are in reasonable condition. It serves as a detailed inspection report that identifies potential issues, assesses the overall state of the property, and helps you make an informed purchase decision.

Key Features of an RICS Level 2 Home Survey Report

Condition Ratings

The survey employs a clear rating system to evaluate each part of the property. Ratings range from 1 (no repairs needed) to 3 (urgent repairs required), providing a straightforward understanding of any issues.

Comprehensive Inspection

Our RICS-certified surveyors inspect all accessible and visible parts of the property, including structural elements like walls, roofs, and floors, as well as fixtures such as windows and doors. Services like plumbing, electrics, and heating are also evaluated.

Identification of Defects and Risks

The survey highlights significant defects, structural problems, and areas requiring maintenance, along with potential risks such as dampness, subsidence, or infestations.

Market Valuation and Insurance

If requested, the report can include a market valuation and an estimated rebuild cost for insurance purposes, ensuring a complete financial picture of the property.

Repair Advice

Offers practical advice on necessary repairs, ongoing maintenance, and any further investigations needed, helping you plan future upkeep effectively.

Levels of RICS Home Surveys

RICS offers three levels of home surveys:

Level 1 – RICS Condition Report:

This is the most basic survey, suitable for newer properties without any apparent issues. It provides an overview of the property’s condition, highlighting any obvious defects and risks.

Level 2 – RICS HomeBuyer Report:

This intermediate survey is ideal for standard properties in reasonable condition. It includes a more detailed inspection and a concise report with condition ratings, defect identification, and repair advice.

Level 3 – RICS Building Survey:

This is the most comprehensive survey, recommended for older or significantly altered properties. It provides an extensive examination of the property, including detailed descriptions of construction and materials, thorough defect analysis, and detailed repair recommendations.
