This article basically gives an overview about the process of the pre purchase property inspection report. The reason for getting this report done is to understand every bit of the property well and to solve any issues before buying the property. In fact, you can even use the information you get from here to lower the prices in the property.

There is a major difference between a building report and a pest inspection report. While a building report may talk about the visual problems caused by the pests it will not give any details of the existence of pests like termites or more. A separate report can be done if to understand the pests in the building.

The format of the report will depend on the details of the building in question. It will depend of the size, age and condition heavily. A lot of reports follow a standard set checklist to evaluate the property but this could change depending on the property. These same factors could also affect the price of the inspection and report. The thing that is bare minimum is that it complies with the Australian Standard (AS 4349. 1)

A building inspection report is ideally just a visual inspection only and may not highlight on any of the specific problems or defects. For this purpose, you may have to hire experts in the field. In case of pest inspections, we provide those too.

An ideal inspection should highlight these parts:

-       Interior of the building

-       Under floor space

-       Exterior of the building

-       Roof exterior

-       Roof space

-       Site

Depending on the first meet you can also ask for other specific parts to be checked and evaluated in your inspection. It may however affect the price a little bit.

At the end of the day, if you need any kind of inspection done you need to also be aware of the kind of thing you want done. As a home is one of the biggest parts of our lives, keeping them safe is number 1 priority.
