What is a Property Inspection Report?
A Property Inspection Report (also known as a UK Immigration Housing Report or Accommodation Inspection Report) assesses the living conditions of a property. It ensures that the accommodation meets the required health and safety standards and is free from overcrowding as defined by UK housing legislation.
Therefore applicants pursuing a Spouse Visa, Fiancé Visa (Marriage Visa), and family dependents (such as Children, Parents, and Grandparents) are required to provide a Property Inspection Report for Immigration.
Housing Act 1985 and 2004: Key Regulations
The Housing Act 1985 and 2004 set out important guidelines to ensure safe and habitable housing in the UK. Under these acts, a property must:
Be free from overcrowding: Overcrowding is defined by strict room and space standards, which we’ll explain below.
Meet safety and habitability standards: The Health and Safety Rating System (HHSRS), introduced under the Housing Act 2004, evaluates potential hazards in a home, including dampness, ventilation, and fire safety.
Is property Overcrowded? How many people can occupy a room?
Under the housing law, there are two ways to calculate whether the home is overcrowded.
- By the number of rooms for people to sleep in. This is called the room standard (Section 325 of Housing Act 1985).
- By the amount of space in the home and the number of people living in it. This is called the space standard (Section 326 of Housing Act 1985 ).
Our visa property inspection report meet all legal requirements
- free from category 1 (serious) and category 2 (other) hazards given under section 9 of the Housing Act 2004.
- not statutorily overcrowded under the the PART X of Housing Act 1985 and shall have sufficient space to accommodate both the current occupiers and the applicant.
- not unfit for human habitation under section 604 of the Housing Act 1985 (as amended).
Overcrowding: Room and Space Standards
Overcrowding occurs when the number of occupants exceeds the allowable limit based on the size and number of rooms. This is determined by:
- The Room Standard: Ensures that no two people of the opposite sex over the age of 10 share a room unless they are married or in a civil partnership.
The Space Standard: Defines the minimum amount of space per person in a home:
- Rooms under 50 sq. ft. (4.6 m²) are not considered suitable for sleeping.
Rooms between 50-70 sq. ft. (4.6-6.5 m²) can accommodate one person under 10 years.
Rooms over 70 sq. ft. (6.5 m²) can accommodate one adult or two children under 10.
Health and Safety Rating System (HHSRS)
A key component of the Housing Act 2004, evaluates 29 potential hazards in a property. These include:
Damp and mould growth
Excess cold or heat
Fire safety risks
Poor lighting and ventilation
Our expert engineers inspect the property to identify and address any potential hazards, ensuring it meets UKVI requirements.
