Top tips for a Epping Home Buyers Survey
Epping has many different styles of property, from Victorian and Edwardian cottages and houses to very modern developments. The Great Eastern Railway arrived in 1865, which encouraged London commuters to live there and housing to develop.
Kendal Avenue in particular has large detached houses. In Tower Road, the Arboretum has 149 new build flats and houses (38 affordable) and there are some homes offered under shared ownership. The ex-council houses around Coronation Hill, built in the 20th century, are well built.

Properties in Epping built in close proximity to the tributaries and channels brooks such as Cobbin's Brook and Cripsey Brook, in streets such Stewards Green Road and Coopersale Street, are in areas which are sometimes subject to flood alerts from time to time. If you are concerned that a property you are looking to buy is in a flood risk area, you should consider getting a flood risk report (click for more details). |
A recent Environmental Search for a property in Amesbury Close, Epping, CM16 4JA noted that there was a moderate potential for natural ground instability in the area within 50m of the property. This finding did not necessarily mean that there was a cause for concern in terms of the property's stability: active subsidence depends on local conditions such as the proximity of trees. A house buyers survey is advised to look for signs of property damage that may indicate poor natural ground conditions. |
Raised levels of noise pollution from roads in the Essex area are at their highest where the M11 and M25 intersect and affects roads nearby to these roads, such as Ivy Chimneys road, Theydon Road and Mount Road. |
Essex is not only a coastal county (the North Sea is to its east) but a home county because it touches Greater London on its eastern borders. Its settlements vary from Colchester, which is very historical and used to be the capital of England as Camulodunum, to Southend, a seaside resort, to Basildon, which is a comparatively modern urban development. The western side of Essex hosts many London workers and there are fast rail links to, for example, Shenfield from London Liverpool Street which aid many city workers.Essex's county town is Chelmsford (and is the county's only city), where Essex County Cricket Club are based. Essex hosts Stansted Airport and attractions such as the Lakeside Shopping Centre, near Thurrock and Epping Forest, a popular forest for camping and other activities. A large proportion of Essex's boundaries are water (the River Thames and the North Sea), the remainder includes Greater London, Hertfordshire, Cambridgeshire and Suffolk. Kent is across the River Thames to the south.

Home Buyers Survey - What does it cover?
A Home Buyers Survey identifies many different defects or potential risks that can be found within a property and is an essential part of any home buying process. The survey, whether a Building Survey (which used to be known as a Full Structural Survey) or a HomeBuyers Report, is completed by a Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors (RICS) registered Surveyor so they are fully trained to provide you with the detail you need to give you the salient facts when you are looking to buy your home in Epping.

Is a Mortgage valuation a defect survey?
Many people mistakenly think a mortgage valuation is a HomeBuyers Survey and this can leave home buyers exposed to high repair costs that could have been negotiated with the vendor. The lender's surveyor conducts a mortgage valuation to calculate the value of the property you are interested in buying in Epping and they do not provide a detailed report on structural defects.
A HomeBuyers Survey itemises defects and includes a full appraisal of the property independently to anyone else including the mortgage lender. You can use the information to obtain quotes to fix any defects and it gives you the evidence potentially to share the costs with the seller.
Most savvy buyers make sure they get a HomeBuyers survey from an independent surveyor to make sure the property they are buying is free from defects. Call us on 0333 344 3234 to get the best HomeBuyers survey for your property in Epping.
Level 2: HomeBuyer Report with a Valuation
A HomeBuyer Report is a good general inspection for new properties, flats, bungalows and other properties of standard construction. The majority of Epping's leasehold flats require only a HomeBuyers Report but for any Victorian conversions, a Building Survey may well be required.
Level 3: Building Survey
In the main, houses in Epping which are over 50 years old, have been developed or have an unusual style justify booking a
Building Survey
as this is the most comprehensive visual inspection a RICS surveyor can provide.
