Stock Condition Survey

At MSR Surveying, we specialize in Stock Condition Surveys (SCS) to help organizations assess the current condition of their property portfolios. These surveys are invaluable for planning future maintenance and repair programs, ensuring that properties remain in good condition over time. The information gathered during the survey is stored in a database and serves as a guide for preventative maintenance. Whether you need an assessment for a single property or multiple assets, our expert team is here to assist. Contact us today to learn how we can help.

When is a Stock Condition Survey Needed?

Organizations responsible for managing property assets or large portfolios are often required, either legally or contractually, to maintain these properties to a high standard.

A Stock Condition Survey provides an overview of the condition of the properties under your care. It delivers crucial information about the state of repair and helps in planning maintenance programs and budgeting for future investment requirements.

At MSR Surveying, we offer tailored Stock Condition Surveys that meet your unique needs. Whether you require inspections of specific elements (e.g., kitchens, bathrooms) or entire residential blocks, our services can be customized to suit your requirements. Additionally, SCS can be combined with other services, such as Specific Defect Reports or Damp Investigations, reducing costs and minimizing disruption.

Meeting the Decent Homes Standard

Our Stock Condition Surveys also ensure compliance with the Decent Homes Standard, which outlines the minimum housing quality that landlords must meet. We identify any health and safety risks, hazards, or non-compliance issues to help property owners avoid legal disputes and maintain their assets effectively.

For landlords and social housing authorities, SCS data provides valuable insights into future asset management and investment programs. For local housing authorities, the condition data of private sector housing stock can guide future housing policies and resource allocation.
