      It would help if you mentioned where you were. Ones we use are approx $400.

    I'm pretty certain that structural guarantees come from the original builder – for the first 6 or 7 years. I don't think you are going to get an inspection company (or their insurers) offering you any guarantees for something they did not construct.

    Thanks for your response, I am in the Perth Area, in regards to the structural guarantees come from the original builder – for the first 6 or 7 years. Does the structural guarantee transfers to the next person when the property is sold say within 1 year of construction?

    My understanding is that the builders warranty is transferrable. Why not give the HIA or MBA in WA a phone call just to confirm?
