PREMIUM Risk Eliminator Package – Pre-Purchase Building & Pest Inspection

Buying a property is one of the biggest financial commitments you will make. Before you sign the contract or commit to your purchase, it is important to understand the condition of the property and identify potential issues that may result in unexpected costs.

The Buyer Confidence Package is designed specifically for property buyers who want to protect their purchase, reduce risk and increase buyer confidence.

Our comprehensive inspection provides an independent assessment of key areas of the property, helping you identify visible defects, potential building concerns, safety hazards, moisture issues, timber pest indicators and other conditions that may require attention.

With our Same Day Reports, you can receive your inspection findings quickly and make a more informed decision while it matters most.

What Does the Buyer Confidence Package Include?

Our inspection is designed to provide a detailed overview of the property’s condition, covering the key areas that can affect its safety, functionality, maintenance requirements and long-term value.

1. Structural Integrity

We inspect accessible areas of the property for visible signs that may indicate structural concerns. This can include cracking, movement, unevenness and other conditions that may require further investigation.

Our aim is to identify potential issues that could affect the overall integrity and performance of the building.

2. Building Quality

We assess the general condition and quality of accessible building elements, looking for signs of poor workmanship, deterioration, damage and maintenance concerns.

This gives buyers a clearer understanding of the property’s overall condition beyond what may be visible during a standard property viewing.

3. Building Defects

Our inspection looks for common building defects that could lead to costly repairs if left unidentified.

This includes identifying visible signs of:

• Rot and timber deterioration
• Water leaks
• Poor or failed waterproofing
• Moisture-related damage
• Deterioration of building components
• Other visible building defects

Identifying these concerns before purchasing can help you better understand potential repair and maintenance costs.

4. Rooftop Inspection

The roof plays a critical role in protecting your property from weather and water penetration. Where accessible, we inspect the rooftop and associated components for visible defects and deterioration.

Our inspection includes key roof elements such as:

• Roof tiles
• Flashings
• Gutters
• Cappings
• Pointing
• Visible roof defects
• Signs of deterioration or potential water entry

Potential roof problems can be expensive to repair, which makes identifying them before purchase particularly important.

5. Appliances – Operability

Where appliances are accessible and safe to operate, we conduct basic operational checks to determine whether they appear to be functioning at the time of inspection.

This can provide buyers with additional information about the condition and functionality of relevant appliances included with the property.

6. Non-Compliances

We look for visible conditions that may indicate potential building or safety non-compliances.

Where such conditions are identified, they are highlighted in the inspection report so buyers can seek appropriate advice or further investigation where necessary.

7. Safety Hazards

Your future home should be a safe environment for you, your family and visitors.

As part of the inspection, we identify visible safety hazards and potentially unsafe conditions throughout accessible areas of the property.

These observations can help buyers understand risks that may need to be addressed before or after purchasing the property.

8. Hidden Defects

Some defects are located in areas that are not immediately visible during a property inspection.

Where access is available and safe, we inspect areas such as the roof space and sub-floor for potential signs of defects, deterioration, moisture, damage and other concerns.

Access restrictions may limit what can be inspected, and any such limitations are taken into consideration when preparing the report.

9. Wet Areas & Waterproofing

Wet areas such as bathrooms, laundries and other water-exposed areas can be particularly vulnerable to leaks and waterproofing failures.

We inspect accessible wet areas for visible signs of water damage, moisture and potential waterproofing concerns.

Our inspection equipment can also assist in identifying moisture differences that may not be obvious during a visual inspection.

10. Timber Pest Inspection

Timber pests, particularly termites, can cause significant damage to a property.

As part of the Buyer Confidence Package, we conduct a visual inspection for indicators of timber pest activity, including:

• Termite nests
• Visible termite damage
• Timber deterioration
• Conditions conducive to timber pest activity

Identifying potential risk factors early can help buyers determine whether further specialist timber pest investigation is required.

Professional Inspection Equipment

We use specialist inspection equipment to complement our visual assessment and help identify potential issues that may not be immediately obvious.

Digital Level

Our digital level allows us to accurately identify and highlight out-of-plumb walls and out-of-level flooring.

This can provide useful information when assessing uneven surfaces, potential movement or other conditions that may warrant further investigation.

Thermal Imaging Camera

Our thermal imaging camera measures temperature differences across surfaces and components.

Thermal imaging can assist in identifying unusual temperature patterns that may indicate potential issues associated with:

• Water leaks and moisture
• Appliance operation
• Electrical components
• Areas of abnormal heat
• Potential termite nest indicators

Thermal imaging is used as a supplementary inspection method alongside our visual assessment.

Direct Moisture Meter

Our direct moisture meter is used to measure moisture levels in relevant building materials.

This is particularly useful when assessing wet areas and investigating potential moisture or waterproofing concerns.

Moisture readings can help identify areas where further investigation may be appropriate.

Voltage Pen

A voltage pen is used as part of our inspection process to assist in determining the serviceability of various GPOs (power outlets) where accessible and safe to test.

This provides an additional check of electrical functionality during the property inspection.

Same Day Reports

When you’re purchasing a property, time matters.

Our Buyer Confidence Package includes Same Day Reports, helping you receive important inspection information quickly.

A timely report allows you to better understand the property’s condition and consider your options before making one of the biggest financial decisions of your life.

Buy With Confidence

A property can look perfect during an open inspection, but problems aren’t always visible to the untrained eye.

The Buyer Confidence Package gives you a more detailed understanding of the property’s condition by combining a systematic inspection process with specialist inspection equipment.

From structural integrity and building defects to roofing, waterproofing, safety hazards and timber pest indicators, we focus on the areas that matter when you’re making a property purchase.

Protect your purchase. Reduce your risk. Increase your confidence.

Choose the Buyer Confidence Package before you buy and make your property decision with greater confidence and better information.
