Independent inspection to AS 4349.1 by a registered building contractor. What you are buying, read by someone who has built. Report within 24 hours.
Three things distinguish a Barragup pre-purchase from a standard suburban one: the Murray River is a permanent watercourse at the bottom of the garden on the closest lots, the alluvial clay it deposited over millennia moves beneath the slabs every year, and the proximity to the Peel Inlet junction adds a fourth factor that most river-corridor suburbs do not carry. The inspection is building scope only, to AS 4349.1. The pre-purchase report documents which of those factors apply to the specific property — because the flood zone position, the watercourse moisture termite baseline, the alluvial clay movement record and the junction-zone hydrology do not apply uniformly across the community; they vary by lot position.
\n\nRiver-adjacent lots receive the most complete set of those factors simultaneously. The combined building and pest inspection is strongly recommended for those lots. For all Barragup properties the pre-purchase builds on the alluvial clay movement record at the specific age and the rural lot site complexity. The report follows within 24 hours.
We run the same inspection across the area, including nearby North Yunderup and Furnissdale.

A building inspection to AS 4349.1 where river proximity, Murray alluvial clay movement, Peel Inlet junction influence and rural lot complexity are the site-layered pre-purchase factors.
No — but the combined inspection is strongly recommended for river-adjacent lots given the permanent Murray River watercourse moisture.
Flood zone disclosure, permanent watercourse moisture as the dominant termite site factor, and alluvial clay movement history at the specific age — all simultaneously for river-adjacent lots.
Reactive alluvial clay movement accumulated in crack patterns and floor levels at the specific age of the home — the structural pre-purchase priority for all Barragup lots.
Yes for river-adjacent lots. Flood zone position is noted as a site matter in the pre-purchase report.
Outbuildings and site infrastructure on larger Barragup lots are read as part of the whole-site assessment.
Yes. River proximity context and clay movement findings give you a factual basis.
Yes, significantly for river-adjacent lots. The combined inspection is strongly recommended.
Yes. Floor levels and subfloor bearing on Murray alluvial clay are primary pre-purchase reads.
Within 24 hours of the inspection.
Also available as a combined building and timber pest inspection in Barragup — both scopes in one visit to AS 4349.1 and AS 4349.3, one report within 24 hours.
