Services
RICS Level 2 Survey
Our HomePlus Digital Home Survey provides a comprehensive, interactive report for standard residential properties. This RICS-accredited survey identifies significant defects, maintenance issues, and energy efficiency factors. Ideal for modern homes in reasonable condition, it helps buyers negotiate prices and plan future repairs while offering clear visual documentation.
RICS Level 3 Survey
Formerly called the Level 3 Building Survey, this detailed inspection suits older properties, unusual constructions, or buildings with major alterations. It provides exhaustive analysis of structural integrity, material condition, and potential repair costs. Recommended for period homes or properties requiring substantial renovation, this survey includes technical analysis and prioritised repair recommendations.
Property Valuation
Independent property valuations for mortgage purposes, private sales, or legal matters. Conducted by RICS-registered valuers using current market data and comparable sales analysis. Available as standalone services or integrated with survey reports, these valuations meet lender requirements and include detailed justification for the assessed value.
Remote Valuation
Contactless property assessments using advanced digital tools and existing data sources. This service combines desktop analysis with local market expertise to deliver accurate valuations without physical inspections. Suitable for standard residential properties in stable markets, it maintains RICS compliance while reducing time and costs.
Home Reports
Mandatory property reports for sales in Scotland, combining survey, valuation, and energy report into one document. Prepared by RICS-qualified surveyors, these reports meet Scottish Government requirements and provide buyers with essential property information. Available with optional homebuyer advice to clarify technical details.
