IS THIS SURVEY RIGHT FOR YOUR LANCASHIRE PROPERTY?

A RICS Level 2 Home Survey is often suitable for conventional purchases across Lancashire, such as modern family homes, typical semis and standard brick-built terraces in generally reasonable condition. With a broad mix of towns and suburbs connected by the M6, M65 and M61, a Level 2 survey is a practical option for flagging issues like roof wear, damp risk, insulation gaps and maintenance concerns before you commit. If you are purchasing an older period property or anything with complex construction, a more detailed inspection may be preferable.
