Moorejw Posted April 29, 2004 Share Posted April 29, 2004 Lead and asbestos surveys and in some areas termites are compulsory on all house sales as far as I am aware.John and Angie Moore (17) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krin Posted April 29, 2004 Share Posted April 29, 2004 AFAIK Asbestos are compulsory everywhere and lead and termite reports depend on the area. Your Notaire will have a list of areas and what is required in each, or your estate agent if your are buying or selling through one should know. The reports are relatively cheap and paid for by the vendor. Termite and Asbestos reports cost us about 150 euros for the house we've just sold.Krin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jirac18 Posted May 1, 2004 Share Posted May 1, 2004 Yes they are compulsory unless the house is a new build less than 10yrs old in which case they will be certificated much in the same way as NHBC certs work in Uk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jp1 Posted May 2, 2004 Author Share Posted May 2, 2004 Thanks for the help guys,I did find something afterwards that says that houses built after 1997 don't need asbestos tests as long as the owner has a certificate of conformity which should have been acquired at the time of building.Re the lead test this is compulsary on all houses built before 1948regards.JP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
