The Reason Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Important

You’ve found one that looks like it meets all the criteria. The real estate agent reckons it is sturdy and solid, while your DIY professional friend says it looks good. Do you really have to get it checked?

If you’re purchasing a house without performing a pre inspection prior to purchase, not only could you be left with costly issues that might have been identified, you may be severely limiting your ability to seek damages in the event that the house ended up with a significant issue.

A pre-purchase building inspection report issued by an qualified Kelburn building inspector will identify any problems the property has, as well as any future problems and highlight areas to add value. It makes sure that house buyers do not face unpleasant surprises and gives you the chance to negotiate a lower cost.

We check the entire property and identify any significant defects and any urgent maintenance issues or problems caused by gradual deterioration. We are looking for structural issues or any indication that the house is a leaky building or issues that result from deferred maintenance such as weatherboards rotting because of peeling paint, and areas that are damp or mould.
