Condition Report
Before you buy a property, it’s always a good idea to understand the condition of the building. If the building is old or there are issues that could be potentially costly, a condition report can provide an impartial, third-party view of the current state of repairs and maintenance at a property.
As a prospective owner, a property condition assessment offers benefits that can help you now and in the future. Some of these benefits include:
- Identification of property deficiencies provided in a detailed report.
- Development of proposed solutions and corresponding cost estimates.
- Confident and educated framework for long-term capital planning.
- An accurate assessment of the value of a building.
- Enabling you to be a better, more informed negotiator.
- A basis against which the building’s condition can be assessed after closing.
What is in a condition report?
The Chartered Surveyor who writes the report should have a thorough knowledge of building regulations, energy efficiency, safety issues and other property-related matters. This will enable them to write a clear, concise report on the condition of the property.
The report should include a breakdown of the state of the fixtures and fittings, such as the plumbing and electrics. This should be done by assessing the condition of the items, not by testing them. You will receive two copies of the report from the surveyor: one for you and one for the other party involved in the transaction.
