Why Are Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

You’ve found a property that looks like it’s got everything you want. The real estate agent reckons it’s solidly constructed and your DIY professional acquaintance says it’s nice. Do you really have to check it out?

If you’re purchasing a house without conducting a pre inspection prior to purchase but you could find yourself with some expensive problems that could have been identified, you may be severely limiting the possibility of pursuing damages in the event that the home has significant problems.

A pre purchase building inspection report from a qualified Waitangirua building inspector will show up any defects the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future problems , and indicate points that will add value. This ensures home buyers don’t have unpleasant shocks and offers you the chance to negotiate a lower price.

We examine the entire structure and identify any significant defects, future or urgent maintenance issues , and any problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We look for structural problems and any indications that the house is not in good repair, issues caused by deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten because of peeling paint and areas with damp or mould.
