MORTGAGE TREE REPORT
A house is often the most expensive purchase we ever make. Trees can influence
the property's structural integrity and so it is prudent that before you sign the
contract, any trees within the curtilage of your property are inspected, and the liklihood
of them causing future damage is assessed.
Trees can cause damage to property through direct impact, and indirectly through roots dessiccating
the soil below the foundations, causing subsidence. Tree removal can also affect the foundations
through the process of heave, and so a professional assessment should be carried out before
felling.
It is often the case that mortgage lenders also ask for a tree
report to be undertaken in order to secure the mortgage. At Wotton Tree
Consultancy we understand that buying a new home can be a trying
experience, and reports can be issued at very short notice when required.
