The Reasons Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

Excellent, you’ve found an apartment that appears like it has all the right boxes ticked. The real estate agent says it’s solidly constructed and your DIY expert friend thinks it’s fine. Do you really have to have it examined?

If you’re purchasing a home without performing a pre purchase inspection, not only could you end up with some costly problems that could have been discovered, but you could severely limit your options for claiming damages if the home has significant issues.

A pre purchase inspection report issued by a certified Oriental Bay building inspector will reveal any issues the property has, as well as any future problems , and indicate points that will add value. It makes sure that home buyers don’t have unpleasant unexpected costs and also gives you the opportunity to negotiate a lower cost.

The property is inspected and look for any serious flaws that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues or problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We check for structural issues and any indications that the building has a leaky structure and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten because of peeling paint and areas that are damp or mould.
