The RICS Level 2 survey, formerly known as the HomeBuyer Report, provides a comprehensive assessment of a property's condition using a clear traffic light rating system. Our surveyors inspect three main areas: the property's overall condition, any specific issues that might affect the value, and the legal requirements that sellers must disclose. Each element receives a rating of red, amber, or green, giving you immediate clarity on the severity of any problems found. The traffic light system was specifically designed to help buyers quickly identify which issues need urgent attention.
For Cadeby buyers, this format proves particularly valuable given the mix of property types in the area. considering a three-bedroom house on Cadeby Close priced around £242,844 or a larger four-bedroom property in the CV13 0BD area reaching £670,000, our survey provides the detailed information you need to negotiate confidently or budget appropriately for any remedial work. The market value opinion included in our report helps you understand whether the asking price reflects the property's true condition.
The survey also includes a market value assessment and reinstatement cost for insurance purposes, giving you a complete picture of the property's financial implications. Our inspectors provide clear, jargon-free explanations of all findings, ensuring you understand exactly what each issue means for your potential purchase. If we identify any issues that require specialist investigation, we clearly flag these in our report and provide recommendations for further action.

We translate professional observations into plain English, explaining the implications of each defect and suggesting appropriate next steps. This empowers you to make informed decisions about your purchase with confidence.
