Why You Need a Pre-Sale Building and Pest Inspection?

Protect Your Investment and Maximise Sale Price

Selling a property is a major financial decision, and protecting that investment is crucial. A pre-sale inspection helps you ensure that the property is in the best condition possible, allowing you to fix any issues before listing it for sale. A detailed building inspection report will give you a clear picture of the property's condition and help you make informed decisions.

Identify Any
Damage

A building inspection can uncover hidden damage that may not be visible to the untrained eye. Whether it’s major defects, structural issues, water damage, or pest infestations like termites, a thorough termite inspection can help identify these problems early, allowing you to make repairs and ensure your property is in top shape.

Increase Your Property’s Market Appeal

Properties that are in good condition tend to attract more buyers. A pre-sale inspection helps ensure your property meets the expectations of potential buyers, making it more marketable. With the help of pest inspectors, you can identify any hidden issues, such as pest infestations, and address them before listing your property.

Benefits of Pre-Sale Property Inspections

Practical completion inspection Pre-Auction

Helps You Identify Critical Repairs

A pre-sale inspection gives you the opportunity to identify repairs that need to be made before listing your property. This allows you to address minor issues that could otherwise become major problems down the track. 

Provides Transparency for Buyers

When buyers see that a property has been inspected and any issues have been addressed, it increases their confidence in the property. Transparency helps build trust, and buyers are more likely to make an offer on a property.

Leverage the Inspection Report for Marketing

Once the inspection is complete, the report can be used as a marketing tool. You can showcase the fact that the property has been inspected and any issues have been addressed. 

Avoid Price Reductions from Last-Minute Surprises

If a buyer’s inspection uncovers problems that you were unaware of, it can result in price reductions or even the sale falling through. A pre-sale inspection eliminates this risk.

What’s Included in Our Pre-Sale Building Inspections

Building Inspection Overview

The building inspection focuses on identifying potential issues with the property’s structural integrity, exterior, and interior. This includes a visual examination of walls, floors, ceilings, etc.

Structural Issues and Safety Risks

Structural issues, such as foundation problems, can be costly to fix. An inspection will look for signs of settling, cracking, or other issues with the foundation, walls, and support beams.

Interior of the Building

The interior inspection covers the general condition of rooms, including the presence of any water damage, mould, or mildew. It will also check the plumbing and electrical systems.

Roof Space and Under-Floor Areas

The roof and under-floor areas can often be overlooked during regular property assessments. A pre-sale building inspection will include a thorough check of the roof, ensuring there are no leaks or damage.

Termite or Timber Pest Infestation

Termites and other timber pests can cause significant damage to a property. During a pre-sale inspection, the inspector will check for signs of infestation in both the structure and the surrounding areas.

Garage, Carport, and Garden Shed Condition

Garages, carports, and sheds are often neglected in property inspections. However, these areas will also be inspected for structural issues, leaks, and general wear and tear.

We Do Building and Pest Inspections For

Single-storey homes are a common property type in Brisbane, offering ease of access and a simple layout. Our pre-sale inspections for single-storey homes focus on all areas of the building, from the roof to the foundation. For added peace of mind, consider a pre-purchase building inspection to ensure the property is in top condition before finalizing your purchase.

Townhouses are a popular choice for those seeking a balance between apartment living and single-family homes. However, because they share walls with neighbouring properties, there are unique concerns, such as soundproofing, moisture, and structural integrity of shared walls. 

Double-storey homes, often featuring complex floor plans, require a detailed and thorough inspection. Our pre-sale inspections for these properties include checks for structural integrity, including the foundations, roof, and support beams. 

Units and apartments, especially those in high-rise buildings, can come with specific concerns, such as shared plumbing systems, potential leaks, and the integrity of the building structure. 

Selling office buildings requires a different approach to property inspections due to the heavy emphasis on functionality, compliance with regulations, and structural integrity. Our inspections of office buildings focus on ensuring the building complies with safety regulations.

For retail properties, whether they are standalone buildings or located in a commercial complex, our pre-sale inspection services focus on the specific needs of the retail space. This includes checking the structural integrity, the condition of floors, walls, and ceilings.

Industrial buildings present unique challenges due to their scale and the specific requirements of businesses that use them. From warehouses to factories, we understand the importance of inspecting structural elements, roof integrity, and machinery areas to ensure the building is safe and suitable for its intended use.
