This new edition of Reporting for Buyers provides guidance for the surveyor on setting out the findings of the inspection in a clear, unambiguous and unequivocal way. The book provides a full, critical look at the current situation, describing the various types of report currently available to the public for commissioning. The limitations and attributes of these reports are discussed and their respective forms of advice considered in detail, together with the advice provided to buyers which is a legal requirement to Scotland. The authors stress the need for Surveyors to demonstrate their all-round abilities by putting themselves in their client’s shoes to provide advice appropriate to their needs and requirements. In doing so they set out a cogent criticism of the standardised forms of advice offered to buyers and the lack of transparency in how they are presented by comparing what is seen by the client and what is set out in the various guidelines available. Surveyors will find the site notes and sample reports invaluable in demonstrating how the same dwelling can be described in the reports available. Sample reports include: <ul><ul>
<li>mortgage valuation report </li> <li>RICS Condition Report </li> <li>RPSA Home Condition Survey </li> <li>Scottish Single Survey </li> <li>and the RICS Home Buyer Report. </li> </ul></ul> This book is intended for all those engaged in inspecting and reporting on dwellings, whether experienced , newly qualified or studying for appropriate qualifications to become members of professional institutions. It will also be found useful to conveyancing solicitors acting for lenders.

Inspections and Reports on Dwellings is a series of books covering all the procedures for preparing reports on dwellings for buyers, lenders and sellers. It follows the professional guidelines developed in the light of court cases on negligence and Government requirements for the production of Home Condition Reports.'Assessing Age' and 'Inspecting' have already been published and 'Reporting for Buyers' is the third in the series. Following the asessment of age and the inspection, the aim must be to set out the findings in a clear, unambiguous and unequivocal manner. This book shows how that aim can be achieved for the three key types of reports for buyers: Mortgage Valuation, Homebuyer Survey and Valuation and Building Survey.The book covers all the aspects involved in the preparation of market valuations of residential property by the comprehensive and includes four sample reports and an extensive glossary.The Government's decision to make the inclusion of a Home Condition report in sellers' Home Improvement Packs voluntary and not compulsory for England and Wales from January 2007, means that the demand for reports for buyers will predominate for some time to come.
