The Reasons Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Important

Excellent, you’ve found an apartment that appears like it has all the right boxes ticked. The real estate agent says it is solidly built and your DIY professional friend believes it’s great. Do you really need to get it checked?

If you purchase a home without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase but you could end up with some expensive problems that could have been identified, you may be severely limiting your ability to seek damages in the event that the house ended up with an issue of significant importance.

A pre purchase inspection report from a certified Hataitai building inspector will highlight any flaws the property has, indicate any future issues, and identify the areas where you can add value. This will ensure that home buyers don’t have unpleasant surprise and gives you an opportunity to negotiate lower price.

We check the entire property and determine any major defects and any urgent maintenance issues or problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We look for structural problems or any indication that the property is in require of repair and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards rotting because of peeling paint, and areas with damp or mould.
