Home Reports in Ayrshire

From 1st December 2008, a new Law requires that anyone marketing a property for sale must provide a Home Report to potential buyers. The report must be ready before the home is advertised.

What is a Home Report? 

A Home Report is a new document designed to provide buyers with more information before they submit an offer.

It is divided into 3 sections:

  1. A Single Survey.  (A detailed survey of your home).
  2. An Energy Performance Certificate.  (A comprehensive report on the energy efficiency of the property).
  3. A questionnaire on your home which you the seller must complete. This questionnaire provides additional information about the property, i.e. council tax banding, factoring arrangements and details of any alteration carried out to the property.

Call usAt Taylor & Henderson we can take the stress out of preparing a home report and will assist you in completing the questionnaire and arrange the single survey and energy report on your behalf.
