Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Crucial

It’s great, you’ve found an apartment that appears like it has all the right boxes ticked. A real estate agent believes it’s solidly built and your DIY expert friend thinks it’s great. Do you really have to have it examined?

If you’re buying a home without conducting a prior purchase inspection and you end up owning some pretty costly problems that could have been identified, it could also severely limit the ability to claim damages if the house has significant issues.

A pre-purchase building inspection report issued by a qualified Birchville building inspector will identify any problems the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future problems , and indicate areas that can be improved. It makes sure that home buyers do not face unpleasant surprise and gives you the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

We check the entire property and identify any significant defects as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues or problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We look for structural problems, any signs that the building has a leaky structure or has issues due to delayed maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting because of peeling paint and areas that are damp or mould.
