Do I need Pest,Building and other reports?
Publish Date: June 1, 2005

A Pest report is a report carried out by a licensed pest controller after an inspection of the property. This report will show any current or past infestation and advise you as to matters that may need to be addressed.

  • A Building report is a report carried out by a professional as to the condition and state of repair of the buildings on the property.
  • Other reports which you may or may not deem necessary include Plumbcheck, Electrical Inspection, Geo-technical Report and any other expert reports required for your intended use of the property.

We can advise you and if required arrange on your behalf to have pre-purchase Pest, Building or other reports carried out. Some of these reports need to be done prior to exchange of Contracts (eg if a Pest report indicates active termites or damage from past infestation you will have no redress if you are already bound by a Contract).

Some searches, enquiries and reports can be done after you are bound by a Contract but others need to be done prior to that time.

WE WILL DISCUSS THESE MATTERS WITH YOU AT THE INITIAL STAGE OF YOUR PURCHASE
