Home Buying
Select a pre-purchase property inspection that suits your needs
Pre-purchase property reports are now usually recommended by most Solicitors and Property Conveyancing companies and the number of people offering building inspections has boomed. This has resulted in pre-purchase inspections of varying quality and costs. Beware of the "drive by" inspections operators and remember you only get what you pay for. It takes up to 4 hours to carry out an inspection and produce a full report.
A good building inspection will inform the homebuyer of important information that will influence the buyer's decision to purchase the property. An inspection must be comprehensive and provide an accurate and objective opinion whether the building is structurally sound and whether the buyer can expect major expenditures in the near future, such as repairing the roof.
A building inspection report should be tailored to the age of the property. When you buy a newly built home it makes sense to have a thorough inspection of the property's fixtures and fittings, such as the quality of the cabinet-making and tiling in addition to the structural report.
When you are buying an older home you should expect normal wear and tear, but your primary concern is with serious and structural faults that can lead to expensive repairs such as damage to the foundations. CBI will be pleased to discuss these issues with you prior to visiting the site and after the inspection.
Ideally a CBI inspection is completed before you make an offer to purchase the home or during the cooling off period, if a contract has already been made.
A CBI inspection compies with Australian Standard AS 4349.1 and will provide you with a prompt, accurate and objective evaluation of the hom you intend to purchase.

Selling a home can be just a stressful as buying, particularly
if you are looking for a quick sale.
As a seller you will benefit from a pre-sale inspection that will provide
reliable information regarding the state of your property. Few homes are perfect,
and the scale of the potential problems can vary greatly from major structural
issues to simple maintenance needs.
By conducting a pre-sale inspection, you can identify exactly what things
may need to be done to maximise the appeal of your home and ensure a quick
and trouble free sale. You are also then in a position to reassure potential
buyers and their lending institutions that the property they wish to purchase
is worth the purchase price.
