The Reason Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Vital

Congratulations, you’ve discovered the perfect property, and it appears that it meets all the criteria. A real estate agent believes it is solidly built and your DIY expert friend thinks it’s great. Do you really have to have it examined?

If you purchase a house without performing a pre purchase inspection but you could end up owning some pretty expensive issues that may not be discovered, but you may be severely limiting your ability to seek damages if the home was to be stricken with an issue of significant importance.

A pre-purchase inspection report prepared by an qualified Pauatahanui building inspector will reveal any issues that the property may have, highlight any potential issues and highlight the areas where you can add value. This ensures house buyers do not encounter unpleasant surprises and offers you the chance to negotiate a lower cost.

We inspect the entire building and determine any major defects and any urgent maintenance issues and problems caused by gradual deterioration. We search for structural issues and any indications that the house has a leaky structure or issues that result from deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten because of peeling paint and areas where there is damp or mould.
