Pre-Purchase Building Inspections, what is it & what to expect.
What is a pre-purchase building inspection?
Buying a home is a big deal – the last thing you want is to discover hidden issues after you’ve signed the contract. A pre-purchase building inspection gives you peace of mind, helping you make informed decisions and avoid costly surprises down the track.
Who is a Pre-Purchase Inspection For?
First-home buyers who want to be confident they’re making a smart investment
Families making a big life move
Investors looking to understand the real condition of a property
Anyone buying property, really – whether it’s your forever home or a quick flip
What should I expect with a pre-purchase building inspection?
At Kinstone, we take a detailed look at every part of the property – inside, outside, top to bottom – and provide a clear, easy-to-understand inspection report within 24 hours. Each report includes 100–150 images and outlines:
Major structural issues
Safety hazards
Conditions that could lead to future damage
Significant minor defects worth noting
We inspect all key areas including the roof, subfloor, interiors, exteriors, and the surrounding site (like sheds, garages and fences).
If you're about to buy, a pre-purchase building inspection is your best friend. It gives you the knowledge you need to buy with confidence – or negotiate with power.
