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.
A pre-purchase building inspection in Oakford reads a large-lot semi-rural property on the outer southeast coastal plain, where the north-south position within the locality determines the primary ground read: deep coastal sand on northern lots, or reactive Serpentine River floodplain clay on southern lots near the river corridor. The inspection is building scope only, to AS 4349.1, and the Oakford pre-purchase read begins with identifying which end of that north-south gradient the specific property occupies.
For northern coastal-sand lots, the 1980s-1990s rural-residential age read is the primary pre-purchase concern: original wet-area waterproofing at or past service life, and the outbuildings and rural infrastructure read that large-lot properties carry. For southern Serpentine River floodplain lots, the reactive clay read and the flood zone position are added as the site context for the building conditions.
The Serpentine River riparian termite context is noted for the southern lots. The combined building and pest inspection is recommended in Oakford. The report follows within 24 hours.
We run the same inspection across the area, including nearby Byford and Cardup.
