HOME SURVEY LEVEL 3
The Level 3 Building Survey is the most comprehensive condition report providing a ‘belt and braces’ approach to any home purchase.
Our bespoke reports expand on the Level 2 through providing a more detailed breakdown of key building elements, their methods of construction and materials used. Any highlighted defects will be accompanied by useful advice on the necessary repairs and requirements for future maintenance.
We recommend a Level 3 Survey when purchasing older, larger or more complex buildings, particularly those in a poor state of repair. Our reports can be tailored to concentrate on any areas where additional information is required or where further commentary may be useful for our clients’ potential redevelopment plans.
Terracotta differs from many competitors in that we include indicative repair costs for any defects we identify. Our surveyors use up-to-date building indices together with their personal experience to provide costings, giving our clients a clear picture of the often-unknown costs of buying a property. This is useful when budgeting for maintenance works or in some cases, renegotiating the sale price.
