Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Crucial

If you’re purchasing a house without performing a pre purchase inspection, not only could you end up owning some pretty expensive issues that may not be identified, but you may be severely limiting your ability to seek damages if the house was to be stricken with significant issues.

A pre-purchase building inspection report by an certified Glenside building inspector will show up any defects the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any potential issues and highlight areas to add value. This ensures house buyers don’t have any nasty surprises and gives you the chance to negotiate lower price.

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