Top tips for a Newark Home Buyers Survey
Newark, or Newark-on-Trent, is a market town in Nottinghamshire in the East Midlands region of England and it harks back to Roman times as it developed along Fosse Way, an important Roman road. The ruins of Newark Castle date back to Saxon times and the Newark Town Hall was completed in 1776 and is a listed building. There are many surviving Georgian properties in the town.
During the Victorian era a lot of new residential buildings were constructed. Newark's population more than doubled from 7.000 to 15,000 from 1800 to 1900.
Much housing was built in the 20th century, both private and municipal, particularly in the interwar period and post-war, and this has continued up to recent times.
New affordable council houses, both homes and apartments, were completed in 2011 in Norwood Gardens/Town Mill Close in Southwell and also in Clipstone, Bleasby, Boughton and Balderton.
New build developments include semi-detached houses in Snowdrop Avenue and terraces in Clover Gardens and Sleaford Road.

If they suspect there is a problem that needs fixing, they will often recommend a local electrician.

Home Buyers Survey - What does it cover?
A Home Buyers Survey is a visual inspection of the grounds and the internal/external structure of the property and identifies defects such as cracks or damage to the structure of the property, subsidence, damp and infestations.
Some of these defects you may not even see or know what to look for which makes getting a Home Buyers Survey, whether a Building Survey (which used to be known as a Full Structural Survey) or a HomeBuyers Report, if you are considering buying a property in Newark, incredibly important.

What happens if your surveyor finds signs of damp?
If your RICS surveyor flags issues with damp during your defect survey then your next course of action is to contact a damp specialist. The damp surveyor will inspect internal and external walls and floorboards for visible signs of moisture using something called a moisture meter. Finally the surveyor will take a sample of the porous material by drilling into the wall, to see how damp it is.
If you are carrying out the damp survey as part of your due diligence before you buy the property, it is reasonable to ask the seller to cover the costs in your negotiations as the damp will have been worsening during the current owner's tenancy.
HomeBuyers Report in Newark
The HomeBuyers Report is a reasonable 'broad-brush' structural inspection most suited to flats, new properties and bungalows of standard construction. A HomeBuyers Report would suit most leasehold flats in Newark excepting Victorian conversions which may require a Building Survey.
