Out doing a RICS Level 2 Survey for our client in Derby.

Updated: May 7

It's a common misconception among homebuyers that newly built properties are exempt from the need for a professional survey. After all, if a house is only a few years old, shouldn't it be in pristine condition? Unfortunately, this line of thinking can lead to costly oversights and unexpected issues down the line. This was perfectly illustrated during a recent survey conducted by NIVEK Surveying Services in Derby.

Our client was in the process of purchasing a seemingly flawless five-year-old home in Derby. Like many buyers of new properties, they initially questioned the necessity of a survey, believing that the relatively young age of the property meant that there would be no significant defects to uncover. However, wisely, they decided to err on the side of caution and instructed NIVEK Surveying Services to conduct a RICS Level 2 Survey.

During our inspection, we uncovered several surprising defects that had gone unnoticed by the untrained eye. From structural issues to hidden plumbing problems, the property had its fair share of flaws that could have had serious consequences if left unchecked. Thanks to our thorough survey, our client was spared from making a potentially costly mistake and was able to proceed with their purchase with peace of mind.

This case serves as a powerful reminder that even new homes are not immune to defects and issues that can compromise their structural integrity and safety. By investing in a RICS Level 2 Survey, homebuyers can uncover hidden problems early on and make informed decisions about their purchase, regardless of the age of the property.
