PRE AUCTION REPORT
Be aware of any potential issues that may have an impact on a sale before putting the property on the market. Be in a position to carry out any repairs and maintenance that may be required before they become a problem for a sale.
AUCTION REPORTS
HALF PRICE

We understand this and so we guarantee that if you don’t win the first auction and need a second inspection for another auction property, it will be half price within a 12 month period.
WARRANTY
BUILDING INSPECTION
It is imperative to schedule your Leading Warranty Building Inspection as a follow-up after your Building Handover and within the non-structural building defects warranty period.
PRE SETTLEMENT
INSPECTION
The vendor must hand the property over to you in the same condition it was in when you signed the contract of sale. You are entitled to make it a stipulation in the contract of sale that you will carry out a pre-settlement inspection. This can be done at any reasonable time a few days before settlement.
STAGED BUILDING
INSPECTIONS
The Staged Inspection programme consists of 5 separate stage inspections:
Base Stage, Frame Stage, Lock-up Stage, Pre-painting Stage, Building handover or practical completion.
This is followed by an optional stage 6 inspection:
TIMBER PEST INSPECTION
Whether a residential or commercial property, termites can attack virtually any structure containing timber, with 1 in 4 Australian homes being affected by termites. The fact is, termites do more damage to Australian property than fire, storms and earthquakes combined.
DRUG TESTING
Properties contaminated from former meth labs are popping up all across Australia. The chemical residues left behind are toxic and can lead to serious long-lasting health effects and even death. Don’t be a victim!
TAX DEPRECIATION SCHEDULE
As a building gets older and wears out, it depreciates in value. The Australian Taxation Office (ATO) allows owners of income generating property to claim this depreciation as a decline in value tax deduction. A tax depreciation schedule is required to maximise the depreciation claims available and to substantiate these claims in a tax return.
STRATA CORP AND AUDITS
If you’re looking at purchasing a home that’s part of a Strata set up, have you thought about getting a Strata corp inspection audit that could affect the overall value?
PEST CONTROL
Leading Pest Management Services: we can professionally take care of all your pest control requirements with all work being carried out by our highly trained technicians. All technicians are fully insured and all work is carried out to Australian Standards.
ASBESTOS SURVEY
Asbestos the silent killer!
Are you purchasing a property or own a property built before 1990? If so, we recommend having an asbestos survey and accompanying report completed for peace of mind.
