Hidden rot, roof leaks, unsafe wiring, or unapproved work can blow your budget after settlement. Our pre-purchase house inspection, done before you bid or during your due diligence window, finds material faults and gives you a photo-rich report you can use to negotiate or walk away.
We are local to Glenbrook, licensed and insured, and we inspect to accredited building inspection standards using moisture metres, thermal scanning, and safe access to subfloor and roof space where possible. Many buyers rely on a quick once over or book the inspection after finance approval, which weakens your negotiation power and can leave you paying for selfcontrol faults after settlement.

Buying a home without a pre-purchase house inspection can leave you with hidden structural movement, leaks, unsafe wiring, timber pest damage, or drainage faults that cost thousands after settlement. We carry out detailed building inspections before you sign or during the cooling off period, checking roof space, subfloor, services, and site with moisture metres and thermal imaging where suitable, then we deliver a clear report you can act on.
Many buyers skip inspections, rely on a friend, or skim a seller report, and then miss moisture problems, unsafe wiring, or unpermitted changes that may void insurance or delay finance. Our licensed and insured inspectors have completed hundreds of house inspections in Glenbrook, use thermal cameras and moisture metres, get into the roof space and subfloor where safe, follow a clear method, and talk you through repair risks and likely costs the same day.

Do not rush. Many buyers leave a pre-purchase house inspection until the cooling off window is almost over, then miss faults like moisture damage or unsafe wiring, so book early and make the offer subject to building inspections, and as a quick check turn on every tap for one minute and look under each sink for drips and water stains.
Timing matters. Done right, a pre-purchase house inspection is a visual check of the roof, roof space, exterior cladding, foundations and subfloor, interior rooms, plumbing and electrical fixtures, plus moisture testing and clear photos, with a written report usually delivered within one day; follow these steps and you’ll spot leaks, unsafe wiring, rotten framing, or unapproved work early, so you can negotiate repairs, budget right, or walk away before you overpay, and you avoid common mistakes that lead to surprise costs, finance delays, or trouble with insurance.
If you are in Glenbrook, we handle thorough house inspections and building inspections with clear, plain reports you can act on. Contact Franklin House Inspections to book a service or request a quote today.
A pre-purchase house inspection is a detailed check of a property’s condition before you complete the purchase. Like other house inspections and building inspections, and similar to a pre-sale house inspection, it covers the structure, roof, plumbing, electrical, and more to find hidden issues.

A pre-purchase inspection, often treated as a house inspection or building inspection, gives you a clear view of the home’s condition so you can avoid costly surprises after closing.
