Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Important

It’s great, you’ve found the perfect property, and it appears that it has all the right boxes ticked. A real estate agent believes it is well-built and your DIY professional friend believes it’s fine. Do you really have to check it out?

If you’re purchasing a house without conducting a pre inspection prior to purchase and you find yourself with some costly problems that could have been discovered, but you may severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages in the event that the house resulted in significant problems.

A pre purchase inspection report issued by a qualified Vogeltown building inspector will identify any problems the property has, as well as any future problems , and indicate areas to add value. It makes sure that home buyers don’t face unpleasant surprise and offers you the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

We check the entire property and find any major flaws that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues or problems due to gradual decline. We are looking for structural issues, any signs that the house is in need of repair or issues that result from deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten because of peeling paint, and areas where there is damp or mould.
