Inspect The Property Before Settlement

Conveyancing solicitors are hired by property owners and those dealing in conveyancing to make sure all procedures of settlement are handled adequately and according to the rules and regulations. The buyer and the seller must both know about these laws and abide by them for a smoother handling. The buyer has the right to visit the property prior to and during the settlement period. Also, the buyer is allowed to make inspections of the property to make sure no amendments have been made to the original structure that was shown before making the deal.

The need to conduct regular building, pool and pest inspections is being stressed by law for various purposes. It is always a good idea to engage the real estate agent in the process in order to prevent any hiccups that may occur when it comes to property access. Inspecting the water meter is yet another point why a property should be checked beyond the set standard inspection procedures. Bill clearance is supposed to be checked as per water meter. If possible, check for any existing water leakage. To do this, one just has to shut all the sources of drawing water and then check the meter after about 2 to 3 hours. If within this span of time the recorded meter reading has not moved, then this simply means that your water system has no leakage and is in good working condition.

Pool inspections must be done with utmost care and expertise. This is a necessity that must be complied with especially for a property on sale which will need a valid certification before it can legally be sold. Additionally, premises containing a pool must be duly registered in the state's pool safety register.

When it comes to finance, property valuations are another reason for the seller to provide access to the property in question. Prior to the final loan approvals, financial institutions arrange professional valuations to determine the true value of the given property.

It is a known fact that conveyancing is not an easy process so it is important for the buyer and various professionals to access the property several times before and during the settlement in order to prevent any distasteful surprises from surfacing. The possibilities are but not limited to the fact of new damage, changed light fittings, items included in the original agreement which are found to be missing, unfinished work which was supposed to be completed before settlement and the list goes on.
