Top tips for a Midhurst Home Buyers Survey
Midhurst is in West Sussex and is a market town. It hosts St Ann's Castle – or a least its foundations – which dates back to Norman times, from about 1120.
Some of the buildings in the Old Town are Tudor in origin and the Spread Eagle Hotel dates back to the 15th century. North Street has many Tudor buildings which have had Georgian and classical facades added during the 17th and 18th centuries.
There are many Victorian and Edwardian terraces around the main routes out of the town and the mid to late 20th century saw considerable house building to the town's south, around the areas of Fairway, Holmbush and Little Midhurst.
New build developments include large detached houses, duplexes and apartments in Kings Drive and houses of various sizes in Lamberts Lane.

A RICS Home Buyers Survey involves an examination of the structure of the inside and the outside of a property aimed at pinpointing issues such as subsidence, damp, cracks, infestation and damage.
The survey, whether a Building Survey (which used to be known as a Full Structural Survey) or a HomeBuyers Report, is non-intrusive and is highly recommended if you are looking at buying a property in Midhurst.

Does the RICS Level 3 Building Survey include advice on extension works?
The RICS Building Survey report is a detailed defect report based on a visual inspection carried out by a Chartered Surveyor. The report is detailed and often includes photographs and a list itemising any defects identified with comment on any recommendations for remedial works or further investigations by specialists if required.
Advice on future works does not form part of the report but most surveyors are happy to provide their expert opinion on whether proposed works are possible. They may look at the position of manhole covers, height of the roof in the loft space, the floor joists in the loft space, and other structural indicators which would impede any proposed plans. This falls outside of the written report and any communications are usually provided on site or on the phone post inspection.
We would always recommend that you notify the surveyor that you might want to discuss proposed works with him, prior to the survey so he can ensure he takes this into account when completing his inspection.
