BUILDING AND PEST INSPECTION GREENBANK 4124
We see a lot of interesting things when we venture out to properties far and wide. The deck on this property at Greenbank could fall into that category.
It certainly had its share of trip hazards. Apart from the absolute obvious of the two boards that were so decayed they couldn’t support the weight of an ant, there were boards popping up everywhere.
We certainly kept an eye out for the nails that were also popping up everywhere!
It’s fair to say this deck has seen better days.
Yes, we did write in the report the deck needed replacing.
Once we identify issues like this, we speak with the buyer who engaged us about what’s involved with rectifying it. Encountering issues with a property is not a foregone conclusion you need to cancel your offer to buy.
Quite the opposite. We take the time to explain how the issues can be fixed. Sometimes, what seems to be a major issue for a buyer, as a builder with years of experience we might see it as a job that can be easily fixed.
That’s what you need in a building and pest inspection, someone who can give an honest, independent, well-informed and qualified advice.
This gives you the confidence to negotiate with the seller and move things forward to settlement.
