The principle of 'Caveat Emptor', which is Latin for 'buyer beware', remains true of buying property. In other words you as the buyer cannot rely on the seller, estate agent or anyone else as to the fitness, state or condition of the property. You have decided you like this property or it looks like a good deal so now you want to find out if there is going to be any unforseen maintenance costs associated with the property.
A pre-purchase building inspection report from a licensed and insured building consultant is an invaluable report that will provide a proper assessment of the condition of the property. Even taking an experienced friend can be good value. Inspection will often disclose building defects, structural problems, identify any urgent or up coming repairs, safety hazards and any problems with utilities.
Building reports are not based on an exhaustive inspection and should only be considered as a proper and limited inspection within the means of what is accessible to the building inspector at the time the inspection was made. Building inspectors cannot exhaustively and intrusively inspect property given it does not belong to them or the purchaser they are acting for. For a paid written report from a licensed building consultant you would expect an inspection of the interior of the building, exterior of the building, roof space, under-floor space, roof exterior garage, carport and garden shed,separate laundry or toilet, small retaining walls, steps, surface water drainage, stormwater run-off, paths and driveways.
