Condition Report - RICS Home Survey Level 1

This service is designed for clients seeking a professional, objective but basic report on the condition of the property. As a result, it is less comprehensive than survey level 2 and survey level 3. A survey level 1 does not include details of causation of defects, advice on repairs or ongoing maintenance.

what is it?

The Condition Report – RICS Home Survey Level 1 includes:
  • A visual inspection that is less extensive than for the other survey levels
  • No tests of the building fabric or services are undertaken
  • The report objectively describes the condition of the building, its services and the grounds
  • It highlights relevant legal issues and any obvious risks to the building, people or grounds
  • The report is succinct and provides an assessment of the relative importance of the defects and problems
  • Where the surveyor is unable to reach a conclusion with reasonable confidence, a recommendation for further investigation is provided
Oval Surveyors aim to:
  • Describe the part or element in enough detail so that it can be properly identified
  • Provide a clear and concise expression of the surveyor’s professional assessment of each part or element
  • Describe the condition of the part or element that justifies the surveyor’s assessment and
  • Help you gain an objective view of the condition of the property

If you are looking for surveyors that make things easy and simple, Oval are for you. As a seasoned property investor, I’ve had my fair share of bad experiences with other companies. Super impressed.
