HOMEOWNERS survey
If you are selling or buying a property that you suspect is affected by Japanese knotweed, it’s advisable to get a pre-purchase or pre-sale survey of the property. Getting a survey will enable you to fully understand the level of infestation that is on the property. If you’re buying, it will enable you to make an informed decision, and if you are selling – you can have a Knotweed Management Plan (KMP) in place.
A Knotweed Management Plan (KMP) is a prerequisite for house buying and selling where the property in question is affected by Japanese knotweed, as most mortgage lenders will insist on proof that there is a KMP in place. The Environment Agency also states that once you find Japanese knotweed on a development site, it is essential that you set up some form of KMP.
