Buying a house? Home Reports – what they mean for you
Home Reports enable potential house buyers to see detailed survey information about a property at a much earlier stage of the process.
As a seller
You’ll have to pay for the Home Report for your own property. It will include a survey, valuation, accessibility audit and energy efficient report. All potential buyers can see it, unless there’s a valid reason for withholding the information. You’ll also have to work with your solicitor to complete the simple property questionnaire.

How will you deal with any issues identified in the survey, the accessibility audit or the energy report? You have various options:
1. Resolve the issues before putting your property on the market
2. Get quotes and give these to a potential buyer
3. Do nothing and sell the house as per the Home Report
