Top tips for a Petersfield Home Buyers Survey

Petersfield is a town in East Hampshire on the northern slopes of the North Downs. It grew as a coach stop on the route from London to Portsmouth and has an 18th century station of King William III in its market square.

Housing is highly varied; you can find Georgian detached houses in West Meon as well as in St Peter's Road in the heart of town and there are many streets of Victorian terraces, such as in Station Road and Osborne Road. There are Edwardian semi-detached and terrace houses in South Harting and 20th century bungalows in Hawthorn Road and Stafford Road.

New build developments include Stanbridge Meadows in Larcombe Road, offering 1-bedroom flats and 2, 3 and 4-bedroom family homes and Help to Buy is available.

Properties in Petersfield built close to the Tilmore Brook, in streets such as North Road and Grenehurst Way, are in an area where flood alerts are issued 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).	Your RICS surveyor inspects drains during a survey of a property in Petersfield, where the drain cover is accessible and on the site of the property. If the drains are blocked you may need to employ a drainage company to inspect the drains with CCTV and then clear them, such as ASL, 21 Collingwood Way, Ramshill, Petersfield GU31 4QJ.	Solar energy is one of several alternative energy sources; however, the location of a solar farm can be contentious due to its visual impact on the surrounding area. A recent environsearch has shown that a propery on Charlton Drive, Petersfield, GU31 4QL, is within 2km of existing or proposed solar farms.

Home Buyers Survey - What does it cover?

A RICS 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're thinking of buying a property in Petersfield, incredibly important.

I’m buying a new build property, what survey do I need?

If you are purchasing a new build property in Petersfield you will need to have a snagging survey carried out by a RICS surveyor. This is an independent inspection looking specifically for faults in new build properties such as sealant in showers, cracked tiles and many other areas.

A snagging survey is designed to find out if there are any immediate problems with your new-build home. The surveyor will provide a report to the buyer with a listing of the areas within the new property whereby sub-standard workmanship exists and good practice has not been used and poor finishing’s are evident.

The snagging report can be provided to the developer and you can negotiate to get the works completed prior or after you complete your purchase - who is going to repair the snags should however be agreed prior to completion.

Period Conversion Flat Properties in Petersfield

Converted Victorian flats can be confusing for buyers trying to choose which survey is best. Most RICS surveyors prefer to complete Level 3: Building Survey due to the age of the property, however some other surveyors will complete a Level 2: HomeBuyer Report. The best advice is to get the surveyor to inspect the property and check the condition and then guide you on what survey best suits a Victorian Conversion.
