How Much Will The Building Inspection Report Cost?

Cost is a Consideration, so is Quality

“What does a building inspection report cost?” is often the first question asked. Whilst the cost of the building inspection is to be considered, it is certainly not the most important issue. 

A cheap house inspection will not provide sufficient information to enable you to make an informed decision or, if faults are identified, provide you with the required documented proof allowing you to re-negotiate the purchase price.  In fact, the cost of not getting a comprehensive and detailed building inspection done prior to purchase can be long-term and ongoing, ultimately being significant costs you were unprepared for.

A good building inspection report should be detailed and easily understood by you.  Your full defect report should clearly and concisely outline any issues and give information with regards to the severity of the defects,  the means of rectification and it should be backed up with digital photography.  You are making a large financial investment and have every right to expect that you will not receive vague, misleading inspection reports full of building jargon.

Extensive experience, qualifications and quality control have made Action Property Inspections the benchmark of the industry that others can only try to emulate.
