Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Important

Excellent, you’ve found a property that looks like it’s got everything you want. The agent who is selling it says it’s solidly built and your DIY expert friend thinks it’s fine. Should you really check it out?

If you purchase a house without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase, not only could you find yourself with some costly problems that could be identified, but you may severely limit your ability to seek damages if the home was to be stricken with significant problems.

A pre-purchase inspection report by a certified Waiohiki building inspector will reveal any issues that the property may have, highlight any future problems , and indicate the areas where you are able to add value. This will make sure that house buyers don’t face unpleasant surprises and provides you with the chance to negotiate lower cost.

The property is inspected and determine any major defects that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues or problems caused by gradual deterioration. We look for structural problems or signs that the building has a leaky structure or has issues due to delayed maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten because of peeling paint and areas with damp or mould.
