Property surveys in Saint-Médard-en-Jalles : what you need to know

Saint-Médard-en-Jalles is a large town crossed by the jalle (local stream), mixing urban areas, woods and natural spaces. Around the centre, there are old houses and small buildings, then extensive residential districts built from the 1960s to today. Recent blocks of flats have been added. The aerospace industry has long been established here.

With so many houses built before 1 July 1997, asbestos surveys come up very often. Old houses in the centre, built before 1 January 1949, need a CREP (lead report). Gas and electrical installations over 15 years old must be inspected. In a shared building, the loi Carrez (floor area) is mandatory to sell. For a rented home, the DPE (Energy Performance Certificate) and loi Boutin living area are required: a G-rated home cannot be let since 1 January 2025, and F-rated homes will follow in 2028. A termite inspection is required in municipalities covered by a prefectoral order: we check the situation for your address.

The ERP (risk statement) needs careful reading. Depending on where the property stands, it may mention flooding from the jalle, forest fires for wooded districts, shrink-swell clay and a technological risk linked to industrial sites. We check every prevention plan that applies to your address. Saint-Médard-en-Jalles is 16 km from our office: we work there every week.
