A mortgage lender demands a tree report when a valuer flags trees within influencing distance of the property. Halifax, Nationwide, Santander, Barclays, NatWest and HSBC require this before releasing funds. Without a report, the lender withholds the mortgage offer.
Tree roots extract moisture from the soil, causing clay to shrink and foundations to subside. Insurers require a report identifying species, assessing root spread and setting management recommendations before confirming cover.
