Frequently Asked Questions
When you buy a second-hand car, you typically inspect the car first to make sure there are no problems. After all, if a problem arises with the car after the transaction is finished, it can be hard to recover your investment from a second-hand seller. Property inspections are just as important as car inspections, as a professional property inspection can help make sure you're aware of any issues the building may have before you commit to buying it. Luckily, the best building inspectors in Brisbane, Ironside Building, Pest, & Pool Inspections are able to inspect any property, no matter where or what it is. Fill out our enquiry form or call us on 0416 291 179 to make sure your property inspection needs are being met as best as possible.
A third-party building inspection performed by a professional can help make sure both the buyer and seller of a property are getting a fair deal. By inspecting the property, building inspectors are able to identify any indications that a home has suffered from structural damage or pest infestations. In particular, building inspectors are able to determine if a home has undergone an alteration without the necessary council approval and permits for that alteration based on the quality of the work performed, which may cause a legal or practical headache for any potential buyer later on. Once a building inspection has been performed, the building inspector can pass their findings on to their client, who may be able to use them to negotiate a better price, be that a higher price for a seller or a lower cost for a buyer. You will need to hire a building inspector to make sure the price of a property is as fair as possible.
