Asbestos Inspections Fremantle WA 6160
In Fremantle 6160, the cost of a 2 bedroom unit is sitting at a median house price of $495k, and currently spend around 79 days on the market. That's nearly 2 months less than Perth, who's properties sit at 134 days on market.
This just means that you need to be doubly prepared to move on your dream property, when you do find it.
Fremantle has seen a unit price growth of 4.97% over the past 12 months according to Your Investment Mag.
Based on that median price of $495k, if you save up the initial 20%, it means you're taking out a mortgage of $396,000. Based on a 25 year loan, that means your fortnightly repayments are going to set you back a little over a $1,000.
With the prices of units expected to keep rising, it definitely doesn't hurt to make sure that the property you're about to buy is up to code. There'd be nothing worse than having to spend an extra $10,000 a few months after buying it, because you find out the roof is full of asbestos.
Pre purchase inspections, as well as pest, termite and asbestos inspections are going to be your best bet at this stage to cover all your bases.
According to the Australian Bureau of Statistics Perth and surrounding areas saw a pretty decent increase in mortgage prices from the 2006 to 2011 period, with an increase in cost of about 70%.

When choosing a Building and Pest Inspector be sure to ask them the following questions:
- Do you have professional indemnity and public liability insurance?
- How long have you been inspecting houses in Fremantle and the surrounding suburbs
- Are you a licensed builder?
- Will you check the roof of the house?
- How will you identify any pest, termite or rotting woods behind the walls?
- Do you know or have any affiliation with the real estate agent you are dealing with on the property being inspected?
If you are not satisfied with the Building Inspectors answers to each of these questions then contact another building and asbestos Inspector in Fremantle.
