When you’re thinking of buying a residential or commercial property, it’s vital to have a building and pest inspection carried out by an industry professional. These type of pre-purchase inspections are highly recommended by those in the real estate industry, as well as banks and other lenders, as they can help to give you a clearer picture of any potential structural issues with the property before signing on the dotted line.
A building inspection is an essential element of your due diligence before you buy a property, as it will pick up any areas for concern around the building’s structure and condition. Structural faults and damage can be dangerous and expensive to repair, and if the building does not conform to the Building Codes and Standards of Australia, you will be liable for the cost of making it compliant with the regulations.
A pest inspection should be conducted at the same time, to gauge the levels of pest activity on the property, to look for any termite damage, and to review the building’s current pest control measures. It’s a frightening reality that as many as one in five homes in Australia can be affected by termites. This number can increase depending on the location of the property, with homes or businesses in warm, humid climates being particularly susceptible to the pests. The threat doesn’t just come from termites either, as there are a range of issues that can negatively impact the timber structures in your property including fungi and wood borers.
While you can have these two inspections done separately, it is sensible to combine them into one longer, more detailed inspection of the property. This will not only save you time, but you will also only have to deal with one set of inspectors on site.
Generally building and pest inspections are either conducted before you make an offer on a property or during the normal cooling off period that follows after you exchange contracts. During this time you can call off the sale by giving written notice, and it’s important to have a thorough inspection conducted to ensure you’re not walking into a money pit or a long term headache.
