What Are The Reason Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Important

You’ve found the perfect property, and it appears that it meets all the criteria. A real estate agent believes it’s well-built and your DIY professional acquaintance says it’s fine. Are you required to check it out?

If you’re buying a home without performing a pre purchase inspection and you end up with some costly problems that could be discovered, but you may be severely limiting the possibility of pursuing damages if the house has significant problems.

A pre-purchase building inspection report by a qualified Boulcott building inspector will show up any defects the property has, as well as any future problems , and indicate the areas where you are able to add value. This ensures home buyers don’t face unpleasant shocks and provides you with the chance to negotiate lower cost.

We check the entire property and identify any significant defects, future or urgent maintenance issues or problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We are looking for structural issues, any signs that the house is in need of repair, issues caused by deferred maintenance such as weatherboards rotting because of peeling paint and areas with damp or mould.
