When buying real estate, it is so important to obtain a Pest and Building Report from a reputable Company that has sufficeint experience in the field of building and pest control.
Cost is not the only factor to consider when obtaining a report.
It is also recommended for prospective buyers to be present at the time the inspection is carried out by the Inspector so that any areas of concern can be addressed in the report.

You should consult a Solicitor prior to considering a purchase.
