Home Condition
Report |
|
|
The Home Condition Report
is made up of several segments. Each segment needs
to be completed fully and the finished document
signed off by a Home Inspector. The content of
the Home Condition Report is a mix of information
similar to that in the old valuation survey, known
as ‘level 2’ inspection, RICS Homebuyer
Survey and Valuation (HSV) and a full structural
Building Survey, level 3.
Home Inspectors will be required to work in accordance
with rules specified by the Government approved
certification scheme and under the National Occupational
Standards and all properties irrespective of size
will need to have a Home Condition Report completed.
HCR is currently a non-mandatory item, although
this is subject to change.
Designed to be easy to understand and simple to
complete, the Home Condition Report will be of
standard format but will allow for built-in flexibility
to accommodate all sizes and types of properties
from a studio flat, to a 'listed' country mansion. |
