About pre-purchase building inspection
A pre-purchase building inspection is a visual assessment of the property against the relevant standard, reporting on structural condition, roof, walls, wet areas and safety hazards so you know what you are buying. It is one of the cheapest ways to avoid a costly surprise. Book it during the cooling-off or subject-to-inspection period.
