Homebuyer Reports
The main objective of the report is to assist the prospective home buyer to:
- Make a reasoned and informed judgement on whether or not to proceed with the purchase.
- Assess whether or not the property is a reasonable purchase at the agreed price.
- Be clear what decisions and actions should be taken before contracts are exchanged.
Peter also gives his professional opinion on the particular features of the property which affect its present value and may affect its future re-sale.
The concise comprehensive report covers the building inside and outside and the services, and provides general comments relating to the property's grounds. It focuses on the defects and other problems which, in Peter's judgement, are urgent or significant, but also covers:
- The general condition and particular features of the property.
- Particular points which should be referred to the client's legal advisers.
- Other relevant considerations concerning, for example, safety, the location, the environment or perhaps insurance.
Matters which are judged to be not urgent or not significant are, in general, not included in the report, but Peter will mention matters considered to be both helpful and constructive. A copy of the RICS Standard Conditions of Engagement is available for inspection and is sent to prospective buyers on commissioning a report.
