IS A LEVEL 2 HOMEBUYER SURVEY RIGHT FOR YOUR SALFORD PROPERTY?

A RICS Level 2 Home Survey is often suitable for a conventional terrace, semi, modern house or purpose-built apartment in Salford that appears to be in reasonable condition. The city includes traditional neighbourhoods, post-war housing, regenerated waterside areas and modern apartment developments. Our report explains visible defects, repair priorities and matters requiring further checks. A Level 3 Survey may be preferable for older solid-wall housing, converted buildings, complex apartments, extensive alterations or a property in poor condition.

Q: When is Level 3 more suitable?
