Top tips for a King's Lynn Home Buyers Survey
King's Lynn is a seaport and market town in Norfolk amd dates bacl at least as far as Norman times, when it was a modest village. Its St George's Guidhall was built in 1406 and the Hanseatic Warehouse was built in 1475.
Housing is highly mixed in the area, with some period survivals such as the Victorian terraces in Tennyson Avenue and St John's Terrace, and plenty of housing stock built in the 20th century, particularly in the interwar period, such as the semi-detached and terrace houses in Bishop's Road and Park Avenue. More modern terrace3s can be found in Chapel Street. The estates of Woottons and Gaywood were built in the 1960s.
New build developments include the maisonettes in Wisbech Road and the semi-detached and terrace houses in Nar Valley Park, 25 Minnow Avenue.

A large number of properties in King's Lynn, particularly those in close proximity to the banks of the River Great Ouse, in streets such as Regent Way and Albion Street, are in areas where flood warnings and 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). | According to the UK Government's Public Health England, some parts of King's Lynn, including streets such as Henry Bell Close and King John Avenue, are in a raised radon area, with properties built there having a higher probability than average of experiencing ground Radon emissions. The raised Radon area has a maximum radon potential of 1-3% (the percentage is the chance of a property being built where Radon emissions might measure above the action level). If you are concerned that a property you are buying is in an area of raised Radon, please click to visit Public Health England's UK Radon Map.

Home Buyers Survey - What does it cover?
A Home Buyers Survey is completed by a qualified RICS surveyor and delivers a visual inspection of the property in King's Lynn and the surrounding garden. The aim of the survey, whether a Building Survey (which used to be known as a Full Structural Survey) or a HomeBuyers Report, is to identify potential risks or defects that you may not know are there such as cracks or damage to the structure of the property, subsidence, damp and infestations.
