Pre-Purchase Building Inspections

​​Buying a home (and that all important view) is often the largest purchase you will make in your life and so, it is important that before you purchase a property you have all the right information to ensure you can make an informed decision. 
 
Once a pre purchase building inspection is completed a written report of the property’s condition is provided. This inspection is usually carried out well before an auction, exchange of contracts or cooling off period.  
 
The report will give a clear picture of the condition of the property so you have peace of mind before finalising the purchase and it may help you in your negotiations.
 
During a pre purchase building inspection we look for minor and major defects such as:

• Visible defects such as foundations, walls, floors, ceiling and roof framing
• Check cladding
• We test everything that opens and closes, every door, tap, cupboard, window, latch catch and hinge!  
• We go underneath the floors 
• We check up inside in the roof 
• Exterior of the site including things such as a garage, shed, carport, separate toilet or laundry, retaining walls, steps, fencing, paths and driveways and even the clothesline!
