If you're selling a property in Scotland, you'll need a Home Report. A Home Report from Walker Fraser Steele provides information about the property to potential buyers. If the property you are selling is exempt from the Home Report legislation, one of our RICS Chartered Surveyors in Scotland can prepare a Mortgage Valuation for you. An Energy Report is required when a property is sold or rented for the first time in Scotland and is valid for 10 years.

Since 2008, anyone selling a property in Scotland needs to have a Home Report.
The Scottish Home Report is designed to provide home buyers with all the information they need about the property to help them make an informed decision.
When one of our RICS-registered Chartered Surveyors prepares a Scottish Home Report, it will consist of four key elements including the Single Survey, a Mortgage Valuation, a Property Questionnaire and an Energy Report.
You can find out more about these elements below.

The Single Survey forms part of the overall Scottish Home Report.
It's primarily designed to provide information about the condition of the property being marketed, along with an opinion of market value, to help home buyers make informed decisions (before committing to an offer).
This section tells you about the type, accommodation, neighbourhood, age and construction of the property.
It also tells you about the extent of the inspection and highlights anything that the surveyor could not inspect.

For all buildings in Scotland, an Energy Report is required when a property is sold or rented for the first time.
All residential properties which are rented or let in Scotland require an Energy Report (or Energy Performance Certificate / EPC) to comply with current legislation.
An Energy Performance Certificate rates the energy efficiency of the property and provides information on its impact on the environment.
It also provides practical advice on making the property more energy-efficient and an idea of the property's annual energy costs.
