The Reasons Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

You’ve found one that looks like it’s got everything you want. A real estate agent believes it’s well-built and your DIY professional friend believes it’s good. Do you really have to get it checked?

If you’re purchasing a house without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase, not only could you end up owning some pretty costly problems that could have been discovered, but you may severely limit your ability to seek damages in the event that the house was to be stricken with an issue of significant importance.

A pre-purchase inspection report by an qualified Highbury building inspector will identify any problems the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future issues, and identify areas that can be improved. It assures house buyers do not face any nasty shocks and also gives you the chance to negotiate lower cost.

We inspect the entire building and identify any significant defects, future or urgent maintenance issues and problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We check for structural issues or signs that the building has a leaky structure and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten due to peeling paint and areas that are damp or mould.
