What Are The Reason Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Crucial

Excellent, you’ve found a property that looks like it meets all the criteria. The real estate agent says it is solidly constructed and your DIY expert friend believes it’s fine. Are you required to get it checked out?

If you’re purchasing a home without conducting a prior inspection prior to purchase and you end up owning some pretty costly problems that could have been identified, you may be severely limiting the ability to claim damages if the home ended up with a significant issue.

A pre-purchase inspection report from a certified Waiwhetu building inspector will identify any problems that the property may have, highlight any future problems , and indicate areas that can be improved. This assures house buyers don’t face any nasty surprise and also gives you the chance to negotiate a lower price.

The property is inspected and find any major flaws and any urgent maintenance issues or problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We check for structural issues and any indications that the house is a leaky building or has issues due to delayed maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten because of peeling paint, and areas where there is damp or mould.
