Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Crucial

It’s great, you’ve found one that looks like it has all the right boxes ticked. A real estate agent believes it is sturdy and solid, while your DIY expert friend thinks 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 but you could end up with some costly problems that could have been identified, you could severely limit your ability to seek damages in the event that the home resulted in significant problems.

A pre-purchase inspection report from an certified Khandallah building inspector will identify any problems the property has, indicate any future problems and highlight areas to add value. This ensures house buyers don’t have any nasty surprises and offers you the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

We inspect the entire building and identify any significant defects and any urgent maintenance issues or problems caused by gradual deterioration. We check for structural issues and any indications that the building is a leaky building and issues caused by delayed maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten due to peeling paint and areas that are damp or mould.
