When you buy a property you need to know exactly what you’re getting. It may have a number of problems that you can’t see, but a qualified Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors (RICS) member will be able to find. So before you commit to buying your new home, make sure that you request a RICS HomeBuyer Report from a qualified RICS member.

It will help you:
 

• make an informed decision on whether to go ahead with buying the property;

• decide what is a reasonable price to pay for the property;

• take account of any repairs or replacements the property needs; and

• consider if you need any further advice before exchanging contracts

Easy to use ratings guide

The 'New' HomeBuyer Survey is colour coded, like traffic lights, to make it easy to see if and where there are problems with the condition of the property. Make sure your dream home isn’t a nightmare in disguise with a RICS HomeBuyer Report.
