Why do you need a building inspection & pre-purchase inspection report?

It is important that you know as much as possible about the condition of a property before you decide to proceed with the purchase. The best way to achieve this is by getting a pre-purchase building inspection carried out on the property and if you are in Hobart, we are just the people to do this on your behalf.


Any building inspection, whether it be a pre-purchase inspection or any other is designed to inform the client of defects or potential defects with a property. This may be cracking due to subsidence or other movement, damp or other issues such as problems with the roof.

One of the most common questions that we face is, “Why do I need a building inspection?”. The answer is quite simple, a building inspection will let you know of any problems well in advance of any purchase. This information can be used to negotiate a better a deal or, in extreme, cases it gives you the opportunity to walk away.

When you have a building inspection carried out on a property in Hobart, you will be issued with a full, easy to understand report that we clearly identify any areas of concern. In some cases, photographs will be included to illustrate and further clarify points of concern but regardless it will be fully compliant with State Government standards. This is why employing the right people to conduct the inspection is essential.

Of course, it is important to remember that some issues may be affected by external factors such as the weather on the day of the inspection. Also, some disreputable individuals may make conscious efforts to hide defects and this may mislead the inspector. Remember, the report should be used for guidance and should not be relied upon to make a final judgement on the purchase of the property – it is merely a tool to assist with this process.
