What is RICS Home Survey Level 2/3?

The RICS Home Survey Standard defines three levels of residential survey. Level 1 (Condition Report) is a basic visual inspection; Level 2 (HomeBuyer Report) covers most modern homes in reasonable condition; Level 3 (Building Survey) is the most detailed and suits older, larger or altered properties. All three must be carried out by a RICS-registered surveyor.
