Mandatory surveys

Postby Burton on Sat 22 Nov 2008 22:02

Hello,

Are there mandatory surveys that I will have to have carried out on my property before I can put it up for sale?

Thanks
Burton

These depend largely on which area the property is in and also what year it was built;

- Termites. If your property is in a recognized Termite troubled area you will have to have this survey.
- Asbestos. On properties built before 1997.
- Lead Paint. On properties built before 1949.
- Safety of Electrical System.
- Safety of Gas Installation.
- Energy Efficiency of Property.
