Overview

Home Report Company is a Scottish residential surveying and valuation firm that specialises in the production of Home Reports — the mandatory pre-sale property information pack required when selling a home in Scotland. The company presents itself as "Scotland's Leading Independent Home Report Provider" and operates as a RICS (Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors) regulated chartered surveying practice. Its core proposition is a fast, flexible and competitively priced Home Report service, with prices advertised from £200 and a stated guarantee that reports are delivered to clients within two working days. The firm is headquartered in Edinburgh and maintains offices in Edinburgh, Glasgow and Aberdeen, allowing it to offer appointments throughout Scotland. A distinguishing feature of its service model is extended availability: rather than working conventional office hours, the company states that it is open from 8am to 11pm, seven days a week, and offers early morning, evening and weekend appointments to fit around clients' schedules. It also emphasises that all of its surveyors are directly employed by the company (rather than subcontracted), are RICS-qualified, fully insured and possess local knowledge. Beyond the standard Home Report, Home Report Company provides a range of related residential property services. These include Energy Performance Certificates (EPCs), which are a legal requirement for selling or renting property in Scotland and are valid for ten years once lodged on the national register; property valuation reports (also called house valuation reports), which are not legally required for a sale but are useful for purposes such as tax planning, inheritance planning, shared equity settlement, immigration, private off-market sales and insurance valuations; and property surveys. The company positions itself on independence, transparency and customer service, describing itself as "truly independent" in contrast to many competitors. It markets a stress-free process, competitive pricing and strong client communication, and cites positive customer reviews. As a private, independent Scottish business, it serves homeowners preparing to sell, landlords needing to meet EPC obligations, and other property owners requiring valuation or survey work.

History

Home Report Company is a Scottish surveying and valuation business built around the Home Report, a statutory document that sellers in Scotland must provide to prospective buyers. The Home Report system was introduced in Scotland as part of the reform of the house-selling process, and it created a dedicated market for chartered surveying firms able to produce the required single survey, energy report and property questionnaire. Home Report Company was established to serve that market as an independent provider. The company has grown into what it describes as a leading independent Home Report provider in Scotland, with offices in Edinburgh, Glasgow and Aberdeen and the ability to arrange appointments throughout the country. Its operating model is deliberately differentiated from traditional surveying practices: it advertises extended opening hours from 8am to 11pm, seven days a week, and offers early morning, evening and weekend appointments, aiming to fit around the schedules of people buying and selling homes. It guarantees delivery of reports within two working days and advertises Home Reports from £200. A central element of the company's identity is its independence and its RICS regulation. It states that it is "truly independent" and that all of its surveyors are employed directly by the company, are RICS-qualified, fully insured and locally knowledgeable. This emphasis on in-house, regulated surveyors is used to reassure clients about quality and reliability. Over time the company has broadened its service range beyond the core Home Report. It now also provides Energy Performance Certificates (EPCs), which are legally required for selling or renting property in Scotland and remain valid for ten years once lodged on the national register; property valuation reports, used for purposes such as tax planning, inheritance planning, shared equity settlement, immigration, private off-market sales and insurance valuations; and property surveys. This diversification allows it to serve homeowners, landlords and other property owners across the Scottish residential market. The company markets itself on customer service, transparency and value, citing positive client reviews and a stress-free process. It remains a private, independent Scottish business focused on the residential property transaction market in Scotland.
