The RICS Home Survey – Level 1
Being forewarned is forearmed. Choose from three levels of RICS home surveys.
Choosing the right home survey will help highlight any serious problems and advise you of the specific risks before you commit to the process of buying or selling a property.


Level 1
The RICS Home Survey – Level 1 (Survey only)
Choose this report if you’re buying or selling a conventional house, flat or bungalow built from common building materials and in reasonable condition.
This service includes:
- A visual inspection that is considerably less comprehensive than the RICS Home Survey – Level 2 and the RICS Home Survey – Level 3
- Clear ‘traffic light’ ratings of the condition of different parts of the building, services, and the grounds, showing problems that may require varying degrees of attention
- A summary of risks to the building, people and grounds.
- An assessment of the relative importance of the defects and problems.
What it doesn’t include:
The RICS Home Survey – Level 1 does not include advice on repairs or ongoing maintenance and it does not include a valuation. No tests of the building fabric or services are undertaken.
