Col Henry Posted October 5 Report Share Posted October 5 I’m looking for advice on home inspections in the area. What are the most important things to look for when hiring a home inspector? I know it’s crucial to check for structural integrity and potential pest issues, but I’m curious if there are any region-specific problems to be aware of in Perth homes. Also, how long does the typical home inspection take, and how much should I expect to pay for a thorough inspection? Are there any red flags that I should ask the inspector to pay special attention to, like asbestos or water damage? Lastly, has anyone had experience with inspectors missing key issues? I want to make sure I’m making the right investment, so any recommendations for reliable home inspectors in Perth would be really appreciated!

When hiring a home inspector in Perth, check their qualifications and ensure they assess for common local issues like termite damage, foundation problems, and asbestos, which can be prevalent in older homes. Inspections usually take 2-4 hours and cost $300-$600. Ensure they check for water damage and roofing issues too. Ask if they're familiar with local building codes and previous clients' experiences. For reliable inspectors, consider building inspection Perth and also get recommendations from real estate agents or online reviews specific to Perth.
