Pre Purchase Building Inspection
Estimated arrival time: Within 24 hours
Description
A Pre Purchase Building Inspection is a critical step when buying a new home in Rockingham or the City of Rockingham, helping you mitigate risks before making a final offer. Conducted by an experienced independent builder, this comprehensive visual inspection identifies both major and minor property defects, ranging from major structural issues to leaking plumbing, which could potentially cost up to $25,000 in unexpected repair bills. The assessment covers all accessible areas of the property to determine its structural integrity. This includes the interior and exterior of the building, roof space, garage, carport, garden shed, separate laundry or toilet, small non-structural retaining walls, steps, fencing, paths, driveways, roof exterior, and the under-floor space. Following the inspection, you will receive a detailed digital report in PDF format within 24 hours, or sooner if required. The report meticulously grades the severity of each identified defect and is supported by high-resolution color photographs. Additionally, raw photos with embedded Geotags and date/time stamps are available on demand. Carried out in strict accordance with Australian Standard AS4349.1-2007 and the Western Australia Building Act, this independent inspection empowers you to make a confident, informed decision about the structural viability of the property before finalizing your purchase.
