Hi,
We're settling on our property that we purchased, this Monday. We've scheduled a pre-settlement inspection to take place this Saturday.
I have asked for the agent to have a complete set of keys to all doors, gates and windows including remotes (to the garage) ready during inspection.
I know that I am expected to overlook any issues relating to fair wear and tear. However, could you please tell how the following issues, if any, are normally handled? Am I right in presuming that my lawyer will instruct that we are holding back a small amount based on quotes received for repairing/fixing the problems?
e.g.
Burners on stove and oven,
Dishwasher
Lights
Toilet cisterns
Power points
Hot water
Ducted heating
Evaporative cooling
Burglar Alarm
Smoke Alarm
Doors and windows - opening and closing
Check all keys work there is key for each lock.
Thanks
