If you purchase a house without performing a pre purchase inspection it is imaginable to end up owning some pretty expensive issues that may not have been discovered, but you may be severely limiting your options for claiming damages in the event that the home resulted in significant issues.

We look for structural problems, any signs that the property is in require of repair and issues caused by delayed maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten because of peeling paint and areas where there is damp or mould.
