What is a Home Report?

A Home Report is essential when selling a property in Scotland. It’s a legal requirement and gives a thorough overview of your home. The report details the condition of the property, energy performance, and a mortgage valuation to ensure potential buyers have all the information they need.

There are four main areas included in a Home Report:

1. Property Questionnaire – The seller completes this document, detailing ownership, council tax band, parking arrangements, central heating, and any alterations made to the property. It provides valuable insights for potential buyers.
2. Single Survey – Conducted by a RICS-registered surveyor, this survey evaluates the property’s condition. The survey assigns categories indicating whether repairs are needed immediately, will require attention soon, or are in good condition.
3. Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) – This certificate rates the property’s energy efficiency and offers suggestions to improve it. It helps potential buyers understand energy costs and efficiency levels.
4. Mortgage Valuation Report (MVR) – Typically included in our Home Reports, this valuation ensures that mortgage lenders have accurate and reliable information about the property’s value.

Preparing Your Property for a Home

To get the best from your home report, it’s worth considering maintenance and repairs beforehand:

• Repair any damaged rainwater goods
• Replace loose/broken slates and tiles
• Check flat roofs for damage and leakage
• Is the rendering in good condition?
• Is your window, door, and eave joinery in good order?
• Do you have an electrical test certificate?
• Has your boiler been serviced within the last 12 months?
• Is the property tidy and presentable?
