The Reason Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Crucial

You’ve found a property that looks like it meets all the criteria. The real estate agent says it is well-built and your DIY expert friend says it looks fine. Do you really have to get it checked out?

If you’re buying a house without conducting a pre inspection prior to purchase it is possible to end up owning some pretty costly problems that could have been discovered, but it could also severely limit your options for claiming damages in the event that the house has significant problems.

A pre purchase building inspection report from an certified Thorndon building inspector will identify any problems that the property may have, highlight any future issues, and identify areas to add value. This will make sure that house buyers do not face any nasty unexpected costs and offers you the chance to negotiate lower cost.

The property is inspected and determine any major defects, future or urgent maintenance issues , and any problems due to gradual decline. We search for structural issues, any signs that the building is a leaky building, issues caused by deferred maintenance such as weatherboards rotting because of peeling paint and areas where there is damp or mould.
