You’ve found a property that looks like it has all the right boxes ticked. The real estate agent reckons it’s sturdy and solid, while your DIY expert acquaintance says it’s nice. Are you required to get it checked out?

If you’re purchasing a home without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase and you end up owning some pretty costly problems that could be discovered, but you may be severely limiting your ability to seek damages if the home was to be stricken with an issue of significant importance.

A pre-purchase inspection report by an qualified Oriental Bay building inspector will identify any problems the property has, indicate any future problems and highlight points that will add value. It will make sure that home buyers do not face any nasty unexpected costs and provides you with the chance to negotiate lower cost.

The property is inspected and determine any major defects as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues and problems caused by gradual deterioration. We look for structural problems or any indication that the house is not in good repair or issues that result from deferred maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten due to peeling paint or areas where there is damp or mould.
