Top tips for a Earley Home Buyers Survey


Earley has a great mix of housing, from the Victorian period onwards, and a large number of listed buildings, such as the North and South Lodges in Whiteknights Road (both early 19th century).

The town grew rapidly before and after the second world war, becoming a town in 1974, hence the predomination of 1930s-1950s standard construction housing.

Lower Earley developed as a private estate from 1977 onwards (it continued into the 1980s and 1990s) and has many properties, from studio flats to modern mansions. .

There are new build developments such as Croft Gardens in Hyde End Road and Castle Walk in Wensley Road, where you can also find shared ownership flats.

Earley consists of slowly permeable, seasonally wet, slightly acid but base-rich loamy and clayey soils. Soils have impeded drainage - the effect is more severe and winter waterlogging results in very wet ground conditions.
Earley and Lower Earley have a number of new build developments completed and under construction. When buying a new build property make sure to get a snagging report to ensure the build quality of the finished property is up to standard. Read more about - What is a Snagging Report?
Property valuation surveys are required for Help to Buy Equity release settlements.

In a property valuation on Wyatt Cresent, Lower Earley, Reading, RG6 3WH, our surveyor explains the condition and construction of the proeprty and then provided comparable properties to support an assessment of the current market value.

BerkshireBerkshire is a county which touches a small part of the borders of West London. It is a home county (because it borders Greater London) and is often called Royal Berkshire because it contains Windsor and Windsor Castle. It hosts a number of iconic UK landmarks such as Ascot (Ascot Racecourse), Wentworth (Golf Course), Sunningdale (Golf Course), Virginia Water and Windsor Great Park and Eton School. Virginia Water was the first postcode area where the average property price exceeded one million.

Like many of the home counties, there are many essentially commuter dormitory settlements which house London workers. Reading (which is Berkshire's county town) in particular is a larger one and is popular because of its very fast rail links with Central London - there are many one-stop services to London Paddington and it is also due to be the western terminus of the Crossrail line.

Why should I have a RICS Survey?

The survey should assist the buyer by flagging any concerns identified with the property which may allow them to make a reasoned and informed decision on whether to proceed with their purchase.

The report will detail any repairs or replacements identified and will also advise where further specialist advice may be necessary.

The property is inspected both internally and externally however the surveyor is only able to inspect areas where access has been provided and visibility has not been impeded.

If a buyer has any specific concerns they have identified, these should be flagged with the surveyor prior to inspection so that they can confirm that these can form part of the report and comment on them accordingly.
