Do I need a pre-purchase inspection on my commercial property?

A pre-purchase inspection is an essential step in your new commercial property purchase.  It is part of your due diligence and can uncover safety issues, defects, termite activity and termite damage.

What steps are involved?

The Dedant admin team will provide a quote based on the inspection required and the floor size of the property. We will contact the selling agent to organise a suitable time to inspect the property.  The selling agent will make the necessary arrangements if the property has tenants.

We encourage our clients to attend their inspection if they can.  The inspector will explain any issues with the property.  We also provide the inspector’s phone number if you have any follow up questions once you have read the report.

Why is a Building and Pest Inspection Important?

Identify Safety Hazards

The report will contain details on any defects that are considered safety issues and have the potential to cause harm to persons if not rectified immediately.

Major Defects

A major defect should be repaired immediately. Failure to repair can cause further damage to the property or affect the liveability of the property.  It can also be a defect to a major structural component of the building.

Minor Defects

By definition, a minor defect is a maintenance issue that should be addressed at some time in the future to maintain the upkeep of the property. 

Timber Pests

The inspector will identify any visual signs of termite activity, make recommendations on conducive conditions and report on whether the property has a current termite management plan.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I couldn’t recommend Dedant Pest & Building highly enough. From the very beginning, the whole process was professional, thorough and easy to deal with. Buying a home is stressful enough, but having someone you can trust to carry out a detailed pest and building inspection gave me a lot of peace of mind. The report was extremely thorough, clearly explained and gave me a really good understanding of the property and anything I needed to be aware of before going ahead with the purchase. The communication was excellent, and I genuinely felt like they cared about getting the job done properly rather than just ticking a box. Thanks to the team at Dedant Pest & Building for making one part of buying my new townhouse so much easier. I’ll definitely be recommending you to family and friends! 🏡🔨🐜 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

It was easy to arrange the building and pest inspections with Dedant Building and Pest Inspections in Brisbane. Their staff were good to work with and helpful with my questions regarding arranging the booking. The inspector was on time and the reports were received within 24 hours and were thorough and provided a good summary of the information we were looking for. I would recommend their service.

I've used Dedant twice and both times they provided a comprehensive building and pest report that was easy for me to understand. Price was competitive and turnaround from the time I provided my details online to the actual inspection the first time was less than 24hrs, and the second time I used them I provided my details on Friday afternoon and the inspection was two work days later. Dedant corresponded directly with the real estate agent to organise so I didn't have to do anything in regards to communicate between parties. If memory serves me correctly I received the report about 2.5hs or so after the actual insection. Overall I'm happy with the service provided.

Steve performed a pre settlement inspection for our son who is buying his 1st property. Steve did an excellent, very thorough job. He was also more than happy to chat with us after the inspection to answer any queries we had. Brilliant job.

We had a building and pest inspection from Dedant and were very impressed from start to finish. I called to get a quote and was provided all required information include an email with a booking link. I requested a booking Saturday for a Wednesday (very short notice) given Monday was the Logan public holiday. I got the booking email confirmed on Monday and it had an easy platform to send and receive messages to the company without having to call. The technician arrived promptly and we left him to do what he needed, he was extremely thorough and was at the property for just over 2 hours. He was knowledgeable about every issue and all questions we asked, talked us through the exact process required for termite barriers and provided all measurements to get us a quote. The quote and report was in depth and received very promptly. We would not hesitate to use this company again and will absolutely use them to do the termite barriers when we move in.

Very happy with the service as a whole and was super easy to book. Building and pest inspection was in great detail and noticed things I wouldn't even think to look at. The 70+ page report came back the same day (~6hrs after). Stephen was great to deal with and was happy to answer any follow up questions and concerns I had.

We used dedant to inspect this property when we bought it and they helped us get a bunch of things repaired before we moved in which saved us a huge pile of money. And we just used them for a presale inspection to now sell our home. They have been professional, very helpful. Fast to communicate and really gone above and beyond to be really helpful in dealing with on both occasions and I will definitely be using them in the future. Very grateful for their hard work for us.

I went with Dedant this year in March. Highly recommend Steve who did such a thorough job and guided my wife and I. We are new into the house market so there were many things we didn’t know and Steve supported us through it all. Fantastic admin team who are easy to talk through and organize everything.
