More and more, we are realising that getting a pre-purchase building inspection is necessary when buying property. While a bad report may not deter you from buying the property, at least you are armed with the knowledge of what needs to be done, and what it will cost, so you can bid on the property accordingly. Today, we will find out more about how you can use your pre-purchase building inspection to your advantage.

1. What is a pre-purchase building inspection?
2. How much would one cost?
3. What is involved?
a). How much notice do buyers need to give you and what's your turnaround?
b). Do you contact the agent to organise the inspection, or do you turn up with the buyer?
4. If I saw a property this weekend that was going to auction the following weekend and I wanted you to do an inspection on it, would that be enough time to buy the property?
5. How often do you tell a buyer that it's not a sound property? or is it more that they are informed and purchase the home knowing they will need to spend more money to get it right?
6. How many pre-purchase inspections do most buyers do before they actually buy a property?
