If you’re buying a house without performing a pre inspection prior to purchase and you end up with some expensive problems that could have been discovered, but it could also severely limit the ability to claim damages if the house ended up with an issue of significant importance.

A pre purchase inspection report issued by an qualified Wellington Central building inspector will identify any problems the property has, indicate any future issues, and identify areas that can be improved. It assures home buyers do not encounter unpleasant unexpected costs and gives you the opportunity to negotiate a lower cost.

We check the entire property and look for any serious flaws, future or urgent maintenance issues and problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We search for structural issues and any indications that the house is a leaky building or has issues due to delayed maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten because of peeling paint, and areas that are damp or mould.
