Digital Home Survey
Bespoke to Legal & General. The surveyor records images of the inspected areas and potential issues and provides an interactive digital report. Easier to understand and take action.
Digital Home Survey details
What's featured in the survey?
Order a survey online and a RICS qualified surveyor conducts and records an assessment of the property on their tablet.
Using start-to-finish digital technology, a surveyor will send the report straight back to your computer or digital device in a couple of days, not weeks.
After all, we know that when purchasing a house, no one wants to be waiting unnecessary time for a report to be completed.
What you’ll learn from your Digital Home Survey
Our RICS surveyor will have a broad knowledge of your chosen area, types of local property, and issues to look out for. You can trust their detailed assessment to give you confidence by being completely sure of what you’re buying.
During the inspection the surveyor will look over the roof, walls, pipes, timber, and other aspects of the house making sure everything’s in order. The report will also include:
- Legal considerations like planning permission and building regulations which you can share with your solicitor.
- Environmental concerns including smells, electricity pylons and flight paths.
- Health hazards, like asbestos.
- An inspection of boilers and electrics to check if test certificate updates are available or needed.
