A Red Dog Property Inspection includes checking for any Safety Hazards, Major Defects, Minor Defects, and Maintenance items, we scrutinise all areas of the property including the Interior of the Building, exterior of the building, roof exterior, roof space, subfloor space, and the site.

Depending on how big the property is and the type of inspection, a property inspection typically takes 1-3 hours depending on the property size.

One of the main reasons why you should have a Red Dog Property Inspection completed before you purchase is that it puts you in a much better position to set your offer and or negotiate the sale price with the vendor and agent if you are aware of any existing, or undetected issues at the property.

Additionally, if you are planning to renovate the property, or just to move straight in, it’s good to know of any urgent repairs that could blow out your budget.

Yes, we are Registered Building Practitioners (Domestic Builder – Unlimited) and completely independent of any Real Estate Agents, Mortgage Brokers, or Financial Institutions.

A property doesn’t pass or fail an inspection. Instead, a property inspection is a thorough audit of your home’s components that allows you to make informed decisions.  In most cases, there will be concerns listed on your home inspection report, but these are strictly informative and not scored.

While a home inspector may recommend some minor repairs, they are not qualified to make major repairs. He or she can provide information about what needs to be repaired — and it might be helpful to know that information — but the decision to actually do the work lies solely with the homeowner. Not only does this you the freedom to choose your contractors, but it also helps prevent a conflict of interest.

We have a network of qualified, licensed, and registered tradespeople who can provide additional specialised services, and detailed and accurate quotes on any repairs or restoration works that may have been identified during the inspection. 

While there is no legal requirement for a property inspection in many cases, not doing one could mean you may end up buying a property that has major defects that need to be fixed.

It is recommended that you identify the suburbs you are interested in purchasing in and do your research. Know what properties are selling for in that suburb and narrow down your search to properties that fit your budget before engaging Red Dog Property Inspections.

You should engage a conveyancer for advice on how to make your offer subject to a property Inspection report. This way you can secure the property, and no one can purchase it from under you. If purchasing under auction conditions, having a report prepared prior to bidding will arm you with all the relevant information you need to make an informed decision on the day.
