Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Vital

It’s great, you’ve found a property that looks like it meets all the criteria. The agent who is selling it says it’s well-built and your DIY specialist acquaintance says it’s fine. Are you required to check it out?

If you are buying a home without doing a pre purchase inspection but you could end up owning some pretty costly problems that could have been discovered, but you may be severely limiting the ability to claim damages in the event that the home was to be stricken with an issue of significant importance.

A pre-purchase building inspection report prepared by a certified Fairfield building inspector will highlight any flaws the property has, as well as any potential issues and highlight areas to add value. This makes sure that home buyers do not encounter any nasty surprise and also gives you the opportunity to negotiate a lower cost.

We examine the entire structure and identify any significant defects, future or urgent maintenance problems and issues due to gradual decline. We check for structural issues or any indication that the house is a leaky building, issues caused by deferred maintenance such as weatherboards rotting because of peeling paint and areas where there is moisture or mould.
