If you are buying a home without conducting a pre inspection prior to purchase and you end up owning some pretty expensive issues that may not be discovered, but it could also severely limit your ability to seek damages if the home ended up with significant issues.

A pre-purchase building inspection report by an certified Melrose building inspector will identify any problems the property has, indicate any future problems and highlight areas that can be improved. This makes sure that house buyers don’t face unpleasant shocks and gives you the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

We examine the entire structure and determine any major defects that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues and problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We look for structural problems or signs that the building has a leaky structure and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten because of peeling paint and areas where there is damp or mould.
