Property  inspection report is an independent report prepared by a qualified professional for the Home Office for entry clearance or settlement to establish that after the arrival of the applicant the accommodation will not be overcrowded and is suitable for living under the UK Housing Act 1985.

Our Property Inspection Report is dedicatedly designed for immigration and visa application where applicants need to prove that there is adequate accommodation available upon the visa applicant arrival. Our UK entry clearance letter ensures that:

• the property won’t statutory overcrowding when the visa applicant move in under the Housing Act 1985.
• Under Section 604 of the Housing Act 1985 (as amended) the property is fit for human habitation.

Whether or not you are ‘overcrowded’ will depend on the size and occupancy of your home. There are two standards in Part X of the Housing Act 1985 which are used to assess whether a home is statutorily overcrowded. If either or both standards are breached, a dwelling will be statutorily overcrowded. The accommodation will not be ‘adequate’ if it is or it will be overcrowded.

The overcrowding standards are generally governed by the following regulations: Sections 324-326 of the Housing Act 1985 ; Sections 135 to 137 of Part VII of the Housing (Scotland) Act 1987 ; The Housing (Northern Ireland) Order 1988 or Section 76 of The Housing (Northern Ireland) Order 1992 No. 1725 (NI. 15).

The number of person units may not be the same as the number of people. Children less than 1 year count as 0 units, children over 1 and under 10 count as half a unit and children and adults over 10 count as one unit.

• Children less than 1 year = 0
• Children between 1 – 10 = 1⁄2
• Everyone over 10 years = 1

The permitted number of persons in relation to a dwelling is whichever is the less of—

(a) the number specified in Table I in relation to the number of rooms in the dwelling available as sleeping accommodation, and

(b) the aggregate for all such rooms in the dwelling of the numbers specified in column 2 of Table II in relation to each room of the floor area specified in column 1

No account shall be taken for the purposes of either Table of a room having a floor area of less than 50 square feet.
