It’s great, you’ve found an apartment that appears like it ticks all the boxes. The real estate agent says it’s solidly built and your DIY professional acquaintance says it’s great. Should you really have it examined?

If you’re purchasing a house without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase it’s possible to find yourself with some expensive issues that may not have been discovered, but it could also severely limit your options for claiming damages in the event that the home has a significant issue.

A pre purchase inspection report issued by a qualified Waterloo building inspector will highlight any flaws the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any potential issues and highlight areas that can be improved. It will ensure that house buyers do not encounter unpleasant surprises and also gives you the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

We inspect the entire building and determine any major defects and any urgent maintenance issues , and any problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We are looking for structural issues or signs that the building has a leaky structure or issues that result from deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten because of peeling paint, and areas where there is moisture or mould.
