Need help choosing the right inspection?
Prescan can help you understand which inspection best suits your property purchase and timeframe.
If you want to understand the property’s observable condition, a Pre-Purchase Building Inspection is usually the starting point. If you are concerned about termites or timber pest activity, a Timber Pest Inspection focuses specifically on those risks. Many buyers choose a combined Pre-Purchase Building & Timber Pest Inspection for broader insight before committing to a purchase.
No. Prescan does not tell buyers whether they should or should not purchase a property. The role of the inspection is to provide clear, unbiased information about the property’s observable condition at the time of inspection, so you can make your own informed decision based on your circumstances, expectations and risk tolerance.
The report helps you understand visible defects, maintenance concerns, timber pest-related findings where relevant, and areas that may require further investigation or specialist advice. It is designed to give you a clearer picture of what you are purchasing.
Inspection availability depends on the property location, access arrangements and current booking schedule. Prescan aims to assist buyers within their purchase timeframe wherever possible, especially when cooling-off or contract deadlines apply.
Reports are generally completed as promptly as possible after the inspection. The exact timing may depend on the inspection type, property complexity and reporting requirements.
