Synopsis

The Housing Act 2004 has created the need for a new profession - the licensed Home Inspector. The opportunities for those qualifying to undertake this new role are great, but there is confusion around the training path, the professional liabilities and the role of the Home Inspector.

This first book on the role of the Home Inspector, endorsed by the RICS, clears the fog and leads you through the background, the training routes, the inspecting and reporting duties, and provide you with the tools that you will need as you embark on this new career path. For experienced surveyors, the Home Condition Report will mark a dramatic shift in the way that residential properties are appraised.

The Handbook will steer you through effective inspections, applying appropriate condition ratings to all building elements, and objectively report writing - led by the condition ratings. It also includes information on the RDSAP energy and report from one of the country's top data providers.
