Linkfor Property Inspections are your truly independent building inspectors.
Linkfor Property Inspections gives you peace of mind by providing a comprehensive, professional property inspection report. Thorough examination of the house or apartment, and any other buildings on the property, is carried out by an accredited builder and designer.
Why do I need a pre-purchase inspection?
A professional property inspection identifies defects and also provides recommendations for remedial work.
Examples of typical major defects in a home are:
- Poor drainage that affects foundations and timber framing
- Leaks in roofs, poor flashings, sub standard framing and undersize beams and timbers
- Dangerous structures and safety hazards of poorly constructed buildings.
- Cracks and subsidence of masonry walls
- Dangerous wiring
- Leaky plumbing
- Sub-standard fittings and fixtures
Better to be informed about potential problems before you commit to the purchase.
Why should I choose Linkfor to inspect my property?
Choosing an inspector is a question of value for money. We endeavour to offer excellent service, good communication and a detailed report with careful explanations.
We work for you, not the agent or property owner, and keep only your interests in mind.
A thorough report is likely to be of far more value to you than the relatively small fee you pay. A comprehensive, independent property report may save you thousands off the asking price, or alert you to potential costs of repairs and maintenance.
How much will it cost?
A pre-purchase inspection for an average 3-bedroom house in the Hobart area, with digital photos, a comprehensive summary and room by room details, will typically cost $480 including GST. The report is typically around 14 to 18 A4 pages. It is sent by email and can be printed out as a Word document.
Smaller properties involving minimal travel may be cheaper, while some large properties can mean a slight increase in cost relative to the property size and location.
It would have cost us thousands of dollars to get the house back to a liveable standard. Thanks Ian and staff.”
