Top tips for a Normandy Home Buyers Survey
Normandy is a village in Surrey surrounded by hill ranges, north of the 'Hog's Back', which is the narrowest part of the North Downs. It is in a Green Belt area.
The Duke of Normandy, a local pub which closed in 2012, was built in the 1860s.
Housing comes from many different architectural periods. Most of the properties in the area are detached, some very large. There are few terrace properties and even fewer flats. There are bungalows and barn conversions and a number of country houses, particularly from the Georgian period.
The Guildford Road area has many different types of property, with Edwardian semi-detached houses, modern detached properties, Edwardian cottages and bungalows represented.
Plans to develop a site for 1,100 homes in the locale is being strongly contested by local residents' groups.

Flooding is known to affect various locations around Normandy. During heavy downpours, apparently all floodwater from the hill in Westwood Lane and fields (South of the railway embankment) eventually discharges into the culvert at the corner on the south side of the Lane outside “Meadow View” (flooded out on 3 separate occasions). Normandy is also known for subsidence issues, due to its clay soils. |
A RICS surveyor will always give an overall opinion on a property surveyed in Normandy, to make sure any issues are summarised 'in a nutshell'. A recent RICS HomeBuyer Report conducted on a property in Orchard Close noted the following overall opinion from the surveyor: "The property is generally in satisfactory condition, although there are numerous elements requiring maintenance or minor repair. The vinyl floor tiles in the built-in hallway cupboard may contain asbestos. Boundaries require maintenance." Click to find out more about Asbestos |
Raised levels of noise pollution from roads in Normandy area mainly centre around the main Guildford Road and the main roads coming off it such as Glaziers Lane. |
Surrey is located in the south east of England and is well known for its high property prices and leafy areas. Guildford is the county town, however Surrey County Council can be found just up the A3 in the neighbouring town Kingston Upon Thames. It was in Dorking in Surrey at the White Horse where Charles Dickens wrote much of his Pickwick Papers and apparently based many of the characters on local peopleThe University of Surrey can be found in Guildford, however Surrey also hosts the Royal Holloway University of London (Egham), University of Law & Kingston University. HG Wells, writer of War of the Worlds, lived at Horsell Common in Woking in Surrey when he wrote the book and this is where, in the book, the Martians first land on Earth.

Home Buyers Survey - What does it cover?
A 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.

Do your surveyors operate with time limits?
Unfortunately some surveyors in the industry do put time limits on how long they will inspect the property regardless of whether they properly finish the inspection or not.
This isn’t a challenge we encounter as our surveyors operate by staying on site as long as the inspection requires before leaving or if it really cannot be completed in one day, revisiting the next to ensure a full inspection is completed prior to submitting a report to a client.
HomeBuyers Report in Normandy
A HomeBuyers Report is general visual inspection for flats, new properties or bungalows of standard construction. Most leasehold flats in Normandy should have a HomeBuyers Report, however the only exception are converted properties which may need a Building Survey.
Building Survey in Normandy
Most freehold houses in Normandy that are over 50 years old, that have been refurbished/developed or are unusual in style should get a Building Survey. A Building Survey used to be called the Full Structural Survey and is the most comprehensive visual inspection a surveyor can provide. Choosing a HomeBuyers Report when you should have a Building survey can be costly if key defects don't get reported in the detail you require.
