Hi ppl,
I’m still quite new to IP, recently found a property of interest but not sure how go about a few things. Such as who do i look up for inspection of property structure and possible pests. Also if someone could advise on how much such inspections may cost? thanks in advance. [exhappy]Which State?

A pest and building will most probably cost you around $500 (more or less).
Kind regards,
Smart CookieHey There,
If in NSW you have 7 working days cooling off … so you can get you due dilligence done in that time and still call it off.AS a habilt though it is a good idea to put in offers subject to satasfactory due dilligence as a condition. If they do not accept that then the property is possibly suspect anyway and it is not worth spending anymore time… move onto the next deal.
As for finding the peopple to inspect… I would use a specialist in each field … after all you would not ask a dentist to do a building inspection … OS I would not ask a building inspector to do a pest inspection.
Make sure you ask to see a copy of there current rellevant licenses and insurance cover…. otherwise you have no recourse if you find white ants have eaten half the roof out and are grinding thier way through the bathroom and kitchen. (It has happened to us – though we got a discount on the house + insurance due to pest company not completely getting rid of the vermin)….. still was a headache though.
Cheers,
Kiwi[baaa]
