The Reasons Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Crucial

It’s great, you’ve found an apartment that appears like it ticks all the boxes. A real estate agent believes it’s solidly constructed and your DIY professional friend says it looks great. Are you required to have it examined?

If you’re buying a home without conducting a prior purchase inspection and you be left with expensive issues that may not have been identified, it could also severely limit your ability to seek damages in the event that the house ended up with an issue of significant importance.

A pre purchase building inspection report prepared by a certified Woodridge building inspector will reveal any issues the property has, indicate any potential issues and highlight the areas where you can add value. This assures home buyers don’t have any nasty surprises and gives you an opportunity to negotiate lower price.

We check the entire property and identify any significant defects and any urgent maintenance issues or problems due to gradual decline. We are looking for structural issues or any indication that the property is not in good repair, issues caused by deferred maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten because of peeling paint and areas where there is damp or mould.
