RICS Condition Report in Shirley
The RICS Condition Report (Level 1) provides a straightforward overview of a property's condition using a simple traffic-light rating system. Ideal for newer properties in good condition where a cost-effective survey is required.
Shirley's predominantly suburban market features extensive 1930s semi-detached housing stock alongside post-war developments and newer estates, requiring surveyors with knowledge of interwar construction methods.
The RICS Condition Report is the most accessible RICS survey, providing a clear overview of the property's condition without in-depth advice. It uses a simple traffic-light rating (1 = satisfactory, 2 = repair needed, 3 = urgent attention) to highlight the state of each element.
While it covers less detail than a Level 2 or Level 3 survey, the Condition Report still provides a professional assessment from a RICS Chartered Surveyor — giving you reliable assurance that no major issues are present before proceeding.
This report is best suited to modern, well-maintained properties where the buyer simply wants professional confirmation of the property's overall condition.
Shirley's property stock — including 1930s semis, post-war housing and modern new-build estates — means our local surveyors bring area-specific knowledge that goes beyond generic inspection checklists. We understand the typical construction methods, common defects, and maintenance challenges specific to this area.
