Homescore

A new innovative product which will help you understand the condition of your prospective purchase, with the report sent to you on the same day that the inspection is carried out.

Standalone to the lender valuation, Homescore does not carry a property value, which helps to prevent disruption to the mortgage application process.

The valuer will rate 18 different areas of the property from 1-10 and comment on the reason for the specific rating, making it easy to understand and providing you with actionable steps that can be taken to rectify any issues.

Standard Mortgage Valuation

A Standard Mortgage Valuation is not a survey, it is a report required by lenders to confirm that a property provides suitable security for their mortgage.

It provides a limited inspection for lenders, and should not be relied on by consumers when deciding whether or not to buy a particular property.

 

Includes a valuation figure and covers basic property details

Estimates re-building costs for insurance purposes if required

Helps confirm that a property provides suitable security for a mortgage

Homebuyer Report

A HomeBuyer Report is intended for conventional, residential properties appearing to be in a reasonable condition which have not been subject to significant alterations.

In it, you will find the surveyor’s professional opinion on the particular features of the property which affect its current value, and which may affect its future marketability.
