Why Are Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Important

Excellent, you’ve found the perfect property, and it appears that it meets all the criteria. The real estate agent says it is solidly constructed and your DIY professional friend says it looks nice. Are you required to check it out?

If you’re purchasing a home without performing a pre inspection prior to purchase, not only could you end up owning some pretty costly problems that could have been identified, you could severely limit the ability to claim damages if the home resulted in a significant issue.

A pre-purchase building inspection report by an qualified Maungaraki building inspector will show up any defects the property has, as well as any future issues, and identify points that will add value. This ensures house buyers don’t have unpleasant surprise and also gives you an opportunity to negotiate lower price.

We check the entire property and determine any major defects, future or urgent maintenance issues , and any problems due to gradual decline. We are looking for structural issues or any indication that the building is in need of repair or has issues due to delayed maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten due to peeling paint and areas that are damp or mould.
