Citadel building inspection reports are a fundamentally important document for any prospective purchaser. With a Citadel pre-purchase building inspection report you are in the best possible position to make educated and astute judgments on;
  • The cooling-off period is your last opportunity to negotiate with the vendor to secure the fairest possible price considering the true condition of the property and / or, some of the findings in your Citadel building inspection report can be written into the contract as a ‘condition of sale’. If needed the inspector can assist you with your negotiations by verifying any of the findings in the pre-purchase inspection report to agents, vendors or insurers so you will achieve the best possible result from your investment.

  • If the property is offered for auction, you are now able to calculate a precise and informed budget analysis of the purchase. Thereby enabling you to place a realistic cap on your final bid with consideration not only to the properties true value but also to all of its maintenance issues, both present and future.

Citadel’s pre-purchase building inspection reports are designed in an easily understood format covering every aspect of the property from major structural issues to the superficial and critically our reports also cover the storm water management and drainage of the site.

They are compiled on site and presented on completion and most importantly all written reports include an on-site consultation arranged at a time that is convenient to you. This gives us the opportunity to walk through the property so that all the findings of the report can be explained and put in an order of their importance, I can clarify any points of concern and we can discuss your repair options and their probable costs.

Moisture readings are taken throughout the building revealing leaking pipes in walls, asbestos, termite activity and any salt damp affected areas are measured precisely through virtually any wall coverings, including tiles.
