of the property’s condition.
Designed for conventional homes built from 1985 onwards in reasonable condition. An RICS surveyor inspects the main visible and accessible parts of the property and reports the defects, the condition ratings and the next steps worth taking before you exchange.
The essentials

at a glance.
