As the key insurer for building and pest inspectors, the Rapid Solutions team has seen a trend of rising claims and claims costs. More and more, homeowners are taking inspectors to court over omissions in their pre purchase reports. This is something that puts all our clients’ livelihoods at risk.
We’re on an educational mission to empower our clients with practical ways to make their reports more comprehensive and protect their livelihood.
“It’s about reporting not only on what you see but also telling a complete risk story when it comes to the pre purchase building reports,” says Rapid Solutions CEO Belinda Smith.
The Change the Risk Story Webinar – exclusive to our clients– is happening on Thursday, May 15th, 5:30pm – 7pm AEST on Zoom. In 90 minutes, you’ll be equipped with actionable knowledge that will help to protect your business. Here are five reasons not to miss it:
#1 Get practical tips from experts on pre-purchase report
Through a presentation-style panel discussion featuring Belinda and specialist litigation lawyers, this webinar will arm you with practical, useful practices to apply to your pre-purchase building reports.
“You’ll learn how to report on potential risks, not just the condition of the property as seen,” says Smith. “A key part of this is how to capture a record of the condition of the property as you saw it through photos and videos. That way, if a claim comes up later, there’ll be evidence of what damage was and wasn’t visible.”
Another focus will be on teaching clients how to make recommendations to buyers that they can reasonably decide to act on.
“You’ll also learn how to inform buyers so that they know what further investigations or expertise they need to get before buying the property.”
After all, more comprehensive inspections and reports could not only protect you from stressful and time-consuming legal battles but also ultimately give home buyers more value for their money.
#2 Learn from real case studies on pre purchase reports
Secondly, you’ll get to hear about a Rapid Solutions client who had a claim brought against them. This will give you context on how quickly litigation can happen – even on pre-purchase reports that seemed watertight at first.
