If you’re purchasing a home without conducting a prior purchase inspection but you could end up with some costly problems that could have been identified, you may be severely limiting the ability to claim damages if the house was to be stricken with significant issues.

A pre-purchase building inspection report issued by a certified Arakura building inspector will identify any problems the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future problems , and indicate areas to add value. It makes sure that home buyers do not face any nasty shocks and gives you the chance to negotiate lower cost.

We inspect the entire building and determine any major defects that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues or problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We search for structural issues or any indication that the building is in need of repair, issues caused by deferred maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten due to peeling paint and areas where there is moisture or mould.
