What Is a Level 2 (Homebuyer Survey)?
A Level 2 survey is a comprehensive internal and external inspection of the entire property—including outbuildings, gardens, and driveways. Every element is assessed using a clear traffic light rating system:
Red

Condition Rating 3

Urgent or serious issues

Amber

Condition Rating 2

Minor defects

Green

Condition Rating 1

No repairs needed

The report can also include a professional valuation, giving you added confidence during the buying process.

What's Included?

Internal and external inspection of the building.

Assessment of construction, condition, and any visible defects.

Identification of issues such as damp, structural movement, and outdated services.

Condition ratings on all key elements.

Optional property valuation.

Post-survey call with the inspecting surveyor to walk you through the findings.
