The Reasons Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Crucial

Congratulations, you’ve discovered a property that looks like it ticks all the boxes. The agent who is selling it says it’s solidly built and your DIY expert friend says it looks great. Do you really have to get it checked out?

If you’re purchasing a home without conducting a prior inspection prior to purchase, not only could you end up owning some pretty costly issues that might be discovered, but you could severely limit your ability to seek damages in the event that the home ended up with a significant issue.

A pre-purchase inspection report issued by a qualified Alicetown building inspector will reveal any issues the property has, indicate any future issues, and identify areas that can be improved. This makes sure that home buyers do not encounter any nasty unexpected costs and gives you the opportunity to negotiate a lower cost.

We check the entire property and find any major flaws as well as any future or urgent maintenance problems and issues that are caused by the gradual degradation. We search for structural issues and any indications that the property is a leaky building, issues caused by deferred maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten because of peeling paint, and areas with damp or mould.
