A dilapidation building report records the current condition of the property. This is especially useful if you’re in between/have recently completed construction and you have surrounding properties lining your construction site.

Frequently Asked Questions

WHY DO YOU NEED BUILDING AND PEST INSPECTIONS AT YOUR NEW PROPERTY?

Oftentimes, new properties are not up to standards and do not match their valuation price. That’s why a building inspection is a convenient and cost-saving step that you are highly encouraged to do before your final settlement.

If you’re looking for someone to help during your handover inspection, our building and pest inspections address all major and minor defects from pest control actions to mandatory fixes.

WHY DO YOU NEED A PROPERTY INSPECTION WITH QUALIFIED BUILDING INSPECTORS AND NOT JUST YOUR REAL ESTATE AGENT?

Our qualified and fully insured building inspectors are experts in what they do. They also provide an objective evaluation of the property you’re interested in. Real estate agents are focused on selling the property and are not qualified to carry out building inspections or pest inspections. They are also not interested in protecting you from any liability that may arise from the sale of the property.

WHAT CAN YOU DO WITH A BUILDING REPORT PRODUCED BY PROFESSIONAL INSPECTORS?

The best thing to do is to evaluate the results of the building inspection report and follow the recommendations suggested to you. You’ll gain a fairer valuation of the property and reach the outcome that’s the most beneficial to you. Whether that is a better negotiating price with conditions of repairs fulfilled or backing out of the sale entirely, you’ll be able to protect yourself from a potential financial loss.

CAN I SETTLE DAMAGES OR CONSTRUCTION THAT IS NOT UP TO THE BUILDING CODE WITH BUILDING INSPECTORS?

A building inspection report can help you rectify poor construction works or damages found in a new property if it’s not up to building code. You can undergo further negotiation, mediation, or fully undertake legal action in court with the evidence supplied to you to reach a better settlement outcome.
