Inspekto   10 #1 Posted October 26, 2009 The SAVA HCS, Home Condition Survey has been designed for buyers but closely follows the same inspection and reporting principles as the Home Condition Report. The biggest differences are that it does not contain an energy report (most properties should already have an EPC as part of the HIP).  The main benefits of the HCS for homeowners are:  •A jargon free and easy to understand inspection and report with the 1, 2, 3 condition ratings •The ability to include photographs •The surveyors are part of a Quality Assurance monitoring scheme which also provides an escalation process for complaints •A fast turnaround time  So if you are buying a House make sure there aren't any hidden faults and have your own MOT done on the House you are going to buy.  If anybody would like more details I will be happy to forward a draft copy of a HCS to you.  Regards Adam Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
