Top tips for a Sutton Home Buyers Survey

Sutton's housing mainly consists of semi-detached properties built in the 1920s and 1930s however there are Edwardian houses in the Landseer conservation area off Cheam Road and a small number of Art Deco houses and flats in Grove Avenue also off Cheam Road. There are also larger detached properties in the roads around South Sutton near Belmont Village.

Sutton also has a garden suburb in the Benhilton area north of the town centre, with houses built just before the first world war, which have red-tile roofs. It also has a former council estate – the St Helier Estate – which has well-built standard construction homes built between 1928 and 1936.

New developments include Sutton Point in Sutton Court Road, which has 1 to 3 bedroomed flats in 2 tower blocks. Sutton Court in Sutton Court Road opposite Sutton Point offers shared ownership flats as does Seventeen, an L&Q development just next to Sutton Court.

The whole of Sutton is in an area where the Environment Agency has issued flood alerts from time to time, however the locale around the Pyl Brook (so including for example Hamilton Avenue) and also around its tributary further to the north and west (so for example Rutland Drive) are subject to occasional flood warnings. 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).	Sutton has a number of purpose built flats that were built around the 1960-70s. In a recent HomeBuyer Report in Foxley Court, Christchurch Park, Sutton, SM2 5UE, the flat was a 2 bedroom flat positioned on the ground floor of a purpose built, 1960s block comprising similar properties. The property is demised a single garage, which required maintenance.	The grounds of the property will be inspected during the survey making reference to: Tarmac; Pathways; Communal gardens; Steps; and Entrance ways.

Greater London is an area which contains London, the capital of the United Kingdom (which itself centres on the Cities of London and Westminster) and a number of surrounding boroughs which are administered as London boroughs and which are the overall executive responsibility of the Mayor of London. It contains a large number of constituencies, each represented by an MP and it should be noted that these are not the same as nor even always continguous with the borders of the boroughs.

Many parts of Greater London were originally administered by the counties which surround London and these counties are often called the home counties. Enfield, for example, used to be classed as being part of Middlesex, but is now near the northern border of Greater London. Greater London's borders often coincide with a zone of 'green belt': areas where it has been decided that open spaces, parks, forests and wildlife reserves should act as a buffer against urban sprawl. London has numerous landmarks, anything from Big Ben and the Houses of Parliament to Karl Marx's grave in Highgate Cemetery.

Greater London contains more than 9 million inhabitants, a number growing daily, and as this is approximately 1/7 of the population of the UK, it can be seen that Greater Londoners have a large influence on the rest of the country politically and this is enhanced by the concentration of skilled workers gravitating towards the capital.

Home Buyers Survey - What does it cover?

A RICS Home Buyers Survey non-intrusively inspects both the external and internal structure of a property for matters which include; damp, subsidence, infestations, cracks and damage.

The goal of the Home Buyers Survey, whether the Building Survey (which used to be known as a Full Structural Survey) or the HomeBuyers Report, is to provide reassurance when buying a home and this is the case if you are considering buying a property in Sutton.

Subsidence Inspection

Damp

Infestations

Asbestos

What if your surveyor misses something which ends up costing £1,000s?

Our RICS surveyors are required to have indemnity insurance which matches the value of a property they're inspecting.

That means that if they miss something vital which later turns out to be an expensive defect and one which they should have spotted, you can claim the costs of remedy from them.

HomeBuyers Report in Sutton

A HomeBuyers Report serves as a great general inspection for flats, new properties and bungalows of standard construction. Most leasehold flats in Sutton should have a HomeBuyers Report, however the only exception are Victorian conversions which may need a Building Survey.

Building Survey in Sutton

Most freehold houses in Sutton 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.
