Why Are Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Important

Excellent, you’ve found a property that looks like it ticks all the boxes. A real estate agent believes it is solidly constructed and your DIY specialist friend thinks it’s nice. Do you really have to have it examined?

If you purchase a house without performing a pre purchase inspection it is imaginable to be left with expensive issues that may not be identified, but you may severely limit your options for claiming damages in the event that the house has significant problems.

A pre-purchase building inspection report from a qualified Broadmeadows building inspector will reveal any issues the property has, as well as any potential issues and highlight areas that can be improved. It will ensure that home buyers don’t face unpleasant surprises and offers you an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

We check the entire property and look for any serious flaws, future or urgent maintenance issues or problems due to gradual decline. We are looking for structural issues and any indications that the house is a leaky building or has issues due to delayed maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting due to peeling paint and areas where there is damp or mould.
