building
inspection
A pre-purchase building report is an essential document that home buyers should obtain before purchasing a property. Here are some reasons why:
Uncover any potential problems: A building report can identify any problems with the property, such as structural defects, pest infestations, and other issues that may not be visible during a casual inspection.
Negotiate a fair price: Armed with information from the building report, the buyer can negotiate a fair price with the seller based on the condition of the property.
Plan for future repairs and maintenance: The report can help the buyer plan for any future repairs or maintenance that may be required, which can be factored into their budget.
Avoid hidden costs: A pre-purchase building report can help the buyer avoid hidden costs that may arise due to unforeseen problems that could have been identified earlier.
Ensure safety: The report can identify any safety hazards, such as electrical or gas issues, that need to be addressed before the property can be considered safe for habitation.
In summary, a pre-purchase building report can provide valuable information to the home buyer, helping them make an informed decision and avoid any unpleasant surprises after purchasing the property.
pre auction vendor
report
Being aware of any potential issues that may impact the sale of a property and carrying out necessary repairs and maintenance before putting it on the market is an essential step for any seller. Here are some reasons why:
Attract potential buyers: By addressing any issues that may deter buyers, such as structural defects or safety hazards, the property becomes more appealing and may attract a larger pool of potential buyers.
Increase property value: Addressing issues before selling can increase the value of the property and provide an advantage in negotiations with potential buyers.
Expedite the sale process: By being proactive and addressing issues before listing the property, the seller can avoid delays in the sale process that may arise due to inspections and necessary repairs.
Avoid potential legal issues: Failure to disclose known issues with the property can result in legal issues and potentially costly legal battles.
In summary, being aware of potential issues and addressing them before listing the property can help attract buyers, increase property value, expedite the sale process, and avoid potential legal issues. By being proactive, the seller can put themselves in the best position to achieve a successful sale.
Auction report
We know you might be wary of paying for a Pre-Auction Report before you put in the bid, particularly as you may not win. We understand this, and so we guarantee that if you don’t win the first auction and need a second inspection for another auction property, it will be discounted within a 12-month period.
Warranty
building
inspection
It is imperative to schedule your Leading Warranty Building Inspection as a follow-up after your Building Handover and within the non-structural building defects warranty period.
Pre settlement
inspection
The vendor must hand the property over to you in the same condition it was in when you signed the contract of sale. You are entitled to make it a stipulation in the contract of sale that you will carry out a pre-settlement inspection. This can be done at any reasonable time a few days before settlement.
staged building
inspections
The Staged Inspection programme consists of 5 separate stage inspections:
Base Stage, Frame Stage, Lock-up Stage, Pre-painting Stage, Building handover or practical completion.
This is followed by an optional stage 6 inspection:
Building warranty inspection
timber pest
inspection
Whether a residential or commercial property, termites can attack virtually any structure containing timber, with 1 in 4 Australian homes being affected by termites. The fact is, termites do more damage to Australian property than fire, storms and earthquakes combined.
drug
testing
Properties contaminated from former meth labs are popping up all across Australia. The chemical residues left behind are toxic and can lead to serious long lasting health effects and even death. Don’t be a victim!
tax depreciation
schedule
As a building gets older and wears out, it depreciates in value. The Australian Taxation Office (ATO) allows owners of income producing property to claim this depreciation as a decline in value tax deduction. A tax depreciation schedule is required to maximise the depreciation claims available and to substantiate these claims in a tax return.
