The Reason Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Important

Excellent, you’ve found the perfect property, and it appears that it has all the right boxes ticked. A real estate agent believes it’s solidly built and your DIY specialist acquaintance says it’s fine. Do you really have to check it out?

If you are buying a house without conducting a prior purchase inspection it’s possible to find yourself with some costly problems that could have been discovered, but it could also severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages if the home ended up with a significant issue.

A pre-purchase building inspection report from a certified Lochain building inspector will identify any problems the property has, as well as any future issues, and identify the areas where you can add value. This ensures house buyers don’t have any nasty surprise and also gives you the chance to negotiate lower price.

We inspect the entire building and find any major flaws and any urgent maintenance issues , and any problems due to gradual decline. We check for structural issues and any indications that the house is not in good repair or issues that result from deferred maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting because of peeling paint and areas that are damp or mould.
