Pre-Purchase Inspection

A pre-purchase building inspection takes the fear out of buying a home and can eliminate any unpleasant surprises. We recommend you learn as much as you possibly can, including general maintenance issues and also matters that may need repairing. Before you buy a home, it’s a good idea to make sure everything is as it should be. There’s no better feeling than knowing the home you’ve just bought is structurally safe and sound and that you’re not going to run into any issues or problems with it now, or in the near future. All our pre-purchase building inspections are conducted by a fully insured and qualified builder who is in the business of building inspections with a wealth of knowledge available to help make the whole process very smooth and to give you confidence in the property you are about to purchase. Consider including a meth test along with your inspection. Contamination issues associated with clandestine meth labs can make children and adults very ill, it is also a costly exercise to decontaminate. A matter that is often forgotten is a pool fence compliance check. Don’t get caught out when the property is handed over. Pest inspections are often overlooked as part of pre-purchase inspections, but to do that is to risk everything. Having to demolish your dream home after purchasing it is every homeowners worst nightmare. Make sure you book a pest inspection as part of your pre-purchase house inspection.

Pest and Building Inspection

The biggest threats to a property often come in the smallest forms. Topping the pest list, termites alone cause upwards of $700 million of damage to Australian homes each year. Likewise, rodents, possums and similar uninvited guests can cause significant damage – and more than their fair share of distress and expense for homeowners. When purchasing a property, all of this becomes especially relevant as does the stark legal warning, “Buyer, Beware!”. To make the right decisions, you need a full and frank appraisal of potential pest problems, both inside the building and in its wider environment. This should tell you what you are faced with and what it means for your property. It means being able to negotiate your purchase based on the full facts – and to get the right deal. Here’s the bad news for Adelaide homeowners: in South Australia, the threat of termite infestation is amongst the highest in the country. But here’s the much better news: if your property is affected, if you are armed with an expert independent pest inspection report from Adelaide Hills Building Inspections you have all the knowledge you need to respond in the right way.
