What you are looking at

The report a client receives.

Written from site notes

Each paragraph was composed from what the surveyor tapped, photographed and dictated during the inspection, then read through and finished at the desk.

The RICS template

The Level 2 is the RICS Home Survey template surveyors already know, with the condition ratings, limitations and section structure in place.

A Red Book valuation

The valuation sets out the comparables, the market commentary and the reasoning behind the figure, in the order a valuer would expect.
