Survey – Which Level Do I Need?
What’s the difference between a RICS Level 1, 2 and 3 survey?
We offer three levels of RICS-approved home surveys – each designed to suit different property types and client needs.
Level 1 – Condition Report
Best for:
Modern homes in good condition, with no major alterations typically up to £500,000.
What it includes:
A summary of the property’s overall condition
Highlights of urgent issues needing attention
Clear “traffic light” ratings for different areas
No advice or detailed investigation
Not suitable for:
Older, extended, or altered properties – or anything where you’re unsure of the building’s condition.
Typical clients:
Buyers of flats, newer homes, or investors purchasing straightforward properties.

Level 2 – HomeBuyer Report
Best for:
Homes in reasonable condition, built after around 1900.
What it includes:
All features of Level 1
More detail on visible defects and risks
Advice on repairs and ongoing maintenance
Comments on drainage, insulation, damp and timber
Optional market valuation and reinstatement cost
Why it’s popular:
Level 2 surveys are our most commonly requested service – ideal for peace of mind without going into the structural depth of Level 3.
Not suitable for:
Very old, heavily altered, or run-down properties.

Detailed analysis of structure, materials, and condition
Advice on defects, cause and consequence
Recommendations for repair, maintenance, and further investigation
More extensive photos and technical guidance
Ideal for:
