Pre-Purchase Property Inspection in Leichhardt, 2040
Most of Leichhardt's housing was built between 1890 and 1940, with Federation and Californian bungalow styles dominating. These properties have characteristic strengths and vulnerabilities — generous timber framing that can be susceptible to pest activity, corrugated iron roofing that requires regular maintenance, and brick chimneys that often show significant deterioration.
Our inspectors bring more than 30 years of hands-on construction experience to every Leichhardt property inspection — not just a qualification and a checklist. We know what Sydney's older housing stock looks like when it's in good condition, and we know what it looks like when it isn't. That knowledge is what you're paying for, and it's what protects you.
Every inspection is conducted in accordance with Australian Standard AS 4349.1, and your written report — including photographs of every defect identified — is delivered within 24 hours. We also handle all communication with the real estate agent on your behalf, so you don't have to.
