Frequently asked questions
-
It’s not necessary, but it’s better if you’re there to see the condition of the property first hand and have the inspector walk you through any findings. But if your schedule doesn’t allow it, that’s fine. Inspectors will take detailed photos and include them in their reports.
-
For a regular-sized home or building, a building and pest inspection should not take more than 2-3 hours. But some larger properties or those with poor conditions might take longer.
-
We’re more than happy to answer any questions before connecting you with a building inspector. 98% of the time, we get your queries right.
-
Discuss the findings with the inspector for clarification on any points you don’t understand. Ask for more details on the severity of the issues and potential remedies.
Get quotes from qualified tradespeople or contractors for repairing the identified issues. This will help you understand the financial implications. Determine how the issues affect the property’s value, safety, and your decision to proceed with the purchase or sale.
You can use the inspection report to negotiate with the seller. Ask for repairs to be made before you finalise the sale, or request a reduction in the purchase price to cover the cost of repairs.
