Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Vital

Congratulations, you’ve discovered a property that looks like it has all the right boxes ticked. The agent who is selling it says it is sturdy and solid, while your DIY specialist friend believes it’s good. Should you really get it checked?

If you are buying a home without performing a pre purchase inspection it is possible to end up with some costly problems that could have been discovered, but you may be severely limiting the possibility of pursuing damages if the home resulted in an issue of significant importance.

A pre-purchase building inspection report by a certified Maungaraki building inspector will identify any problems the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future issues, and identify the areas where you are able to add value. It will ensure that home buyers don’t face any nasty surprises and offers you the chance to negotiate a lower cost.

We examine the entire structure and look for any serious flaws and any urgent maintenance issues , and any problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We look for structural problems, any signs that the building is a leaky building and issues caused by delayed maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten because of peeling paint and areas that are damp or mould.
