If you’re buying a home without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase it is possible to be left with costly issues that might have been identified, you may be severely limiting the ability to claim damages if the home resulted in an issue of significant importance.

A pre purchase inspection report issued by an certified Seatoun building inspector will highlight any flaws the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future problems and highlight areas that can be improved. This makes sure that home buyers do not encounter unpleasant unexpected costs and provides you with an opportunity to negotiate lower price.

We examine the entire structure and find any major flaws, future or urgent maintenance issues and problems due to gradual decline. We look for structural problems and any indications that the building is in need of repair or has issues due to delayed maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten because of peeling paint, and areas where there is moisture or mould.
