The Importance of a Homebuyer's Report

Identifying Structural Issues
A Homebuyer’s Report can reveal any structural issues such as subsidence, damp, or damage to the property’s walls, floors, or roof. Identifying these issues early can save buyers from unexpected repair costs in the future.Rising damp occurs when moisture from the ground moves upward through the walls by capillary action. This is often due to a damaged or non-existent damp-proof course (DPC).
Understanding the Property’s Condition
By obtaining a Homebuyer’s Report, potential buyers gain a clear understanding of the overall condition of the property, allowing them to make an informed decision about the purchase.
