Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Crucial

It’s great, you’ve found the perfect property, and it appears that it’s got everything you want. A real estate agent believes it is solidly built and your DIY specialist acquaintance says it’s fine. Should you really get it checked?

If you purchase a house without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase but you could be left with costly problems that could have been identified, you could severely limit your ability to seek damages if the house resulted in significant problems.

A pre purchase inspection report by an certified Aotea building inspector will reveal any issues the property has, as well as any future issues, and identify areas to add value. This will ensure that home buyers do not encounter any nasty surprise and gives you an opportunity to negotiate lower price.

We inspect the entire building and look for any serious flaws, future or urgent maintenance problems and issues caused by the gradual loss of quality. We look for structural problems and any indications that the building is in need of repair and issues caused by delayed maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten because of peeling paint and areas that are damp or mould.
