A property inspection checklist helps buyers stay focused on the important parts of a property before making a decision. It is a simple way to compare what should be checked against the report you receive.
If you are comparing services, start with the pre-purchase building inspection page and the report reading guide for the buying context.
Checklist items
- roof space and roof exterior
- subfloor or accessible undercroft areas
- internal walls, ceilings, and floors
- wet areas, drainage, and moisture signs
- visible structural issues and cracks
- termite or pest indicators where relevant
Why the checklist matters
It is easier to make a decision when you know what a proper inspection should cover. The checklist also helps you compare services more fairly.
What a good report should show
A good report should show the issue, explain why it matters, and give you enough detail to decide whether to negotiate or proceed.
