Pre-Purchase Building Inspection
Estimated arrival time: Within 24 hours
Description
A pre-purchase building inspection from Inspectra Property Inspections offers a detailed, independent evaluation of a residential property before finalizing a purchase. Conducted by a Victorian Building Authority registered Domestic Builder Unlimited practitioner, this service is designed to uncover hidden structural defects, safety hazards, and maintenance issues that may not be visible during a standard walkthrough. The inspection strictly adheres to Australian Standard AS 4349.1 to ensure a high level of compliance and thoroughness. The assessment covers all accessible areas of the property, including the roof exterior, roof framing, subfloor, internal living spaces, and external site features. The inspector evaluates the condition of structural elements such as footings, stumps, and walls, while also checking wet areas for moisture issues and leaks. Clients are provided with a same-day verbal summary of the findings immediately after the inspection. This is followed by a comprehensive, easy-to-read digital report within 24 hours, complete with high-definition photographs and severity classifications for each defect. This detailed documentation provides buyers with the necessary leverage to negotiate property prices or make informed decisions.
