What is a Mortgage Tree Report?

If you are a home-buyer looking to purchase a property with trees nearby, then your mortgage provider or buildings insurer may ask for you to arrange a tree survey before approving your loan or cover. 

A mortgage tree report (or survey) is an arboricultural report that is usually conducted to assess the risk that nearby trees may pose to the propertyi. The survey will take note of surrounding trees, their proximity to the property, their dimensions, species, water demand, soil type and much more , and will use this data to determine the risk ofany problems that could be an issue to the integrity of the property. 

At Hallwood Associates, we are committed to delivering first-rate mortgage tree surveys to all homebuyers, and passionate about making the entire process as straightforward as possible.

How Do We Assess Your Property?

Concerns regarding the influence of tree roots on the foundations of a property occur are particularly pertinent when  the underlying ground has shrinkable properties. In order to assess the risks, it is necessary to establish the tree species and its distance from the property, the likely depth of the foundations, and the ‘Shrinkage Potential’ of the clay.

From these factors, it is possible to assess the risks using tables from the NHBC Standards. We offer prompt reports to suit the requirements of insurance and mortgage companies, aiming to have the finished product to you within 24-48hrs.
