What is a Home Condition Survey?
A Home Condition Survey is a plain English, jargon-free report on the condition of the property. It will be carried out by a specially trained and fully qualified residential property surveyor and will show up anything that needs urgent attention, or is likely to present future problems. It will also highlight any exceptional maintenance that you will have to take into account.

My bank is doing a survey - isn't that enough
Your mortgage lender will usually require a valuation report, but these are not the same as the Home Condition Survey. The lender isn't going to live in the property, and a valuation report is designed around their needs, not yours. It will not contain all the information you need to make an informed decision.

Homebuyer surveys and costs
Getting a homebuyer survey is a good way to avoid the stress and cost of making repairs further down the line. One in five homebuyers rely solely on a mortgage valuation report, so it’s no surprise that many are hit with repair bills once they move in.
