What Are The Reason Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Important

It’s great, you’ve found an apartment that appears like it’s got everything you want. A real estate agent believes it is solidly built and your DIY specialist friend says it looks good. Are you required to have it examined?

If you’re buying a home without conducting a prior purchase inspection it is imaginable to be left with expensive issues that may not be identified, but you could severely limit your ability to seek damages in the event that the home resulted in significant problems.

A pre-purchase inspection report by a qualified Kelburn building inspector will identify any problems the property has, indicate any future problems , and indicate areas that can be improved. This ensures home buyers don’t face unpleasant shocks and also gives you the opportunity to negotiate a lower cost.

We inspect the entire building and look for any serious flaws, future or urgent maintenance issues and problems due to gradual decline. We check for structural issues, any signs that the property is a leaky building or issues that result from deferred maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting because of peeling paint and areas where there is moisture or mould.
