"Buy the home you see, not the Termites home that's hidden" 
Thinking of investing in real estate, then the importance of a Pre Purchase Building and Pest inspection in accordance with Australian Standards AS4349.3 we believe is essential for a smooth transaction and cannot be underestimated. TPC are always taking each property on as if we are purchasing the home ourselves. As a buyer, you want to be sure that you are purchasing a building with no structural issues or termites.
You should always make your property purchase subject to a satisfactory Building and Pest Inspection. Although this is not always possible when a property is being auctioned, however ensure you have the inspection completed prior the auction date !
What Can Happen If You Don't Have A Building Inspection?
Most investors do not realise the importance of getting buildings inspected before they make a purchase or sale. They are later surprised with problems and difficulties related to areas of the building that are ruined. This could be a costly mistake especially if the problem is serious since fixing them would be time consuming and expensive.
What Is A Pre-Purchase Building Inspection and Pest Inspection Report?
This is a property inspection report you obtain before you purchase a property. It is a written account on the condition of the building detailing any visual significant defects and hazards.
This building report should be carried out before you exchange contracts so that you are well informed about the condition of the property, prior to committing to the purchase.
The Building Report will:
- Make you aware in advance of any issues
- Enable you to use the information in negotiating the price for the property
- Allow you to negotiate any problems before you proceed
- Allow you to get professional advice on the problems (if any) and assist you to determine how they may affect your investment.
- Provide you with the information you need to determine if you should pull out of the Contract
- Save you thousands in repairs
