Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Important

You’ve found a property that looks like it’s got everything you want. The real estate agent says it is sturdy and solid, while your DIY expert friend believes it’s great. Are you required to get it checked?

If you’re purchasing a house without conducting a pre purchase inspection but you could end up owning some pretty expensive problems that could have been identified, you may be severely limiting your options for claiming damages if the home ended up with an issue of significant importance.

A pre-purchase inspection report by an qualified Trentham building inspector will show up any defects the property has, indicate any potential issues and highlight the areas where you can add value. This ensures home buyers don’t have any nasty surprises and also gives you an opportunity to negotiate lower price.

We inspect the entire building and look for any serious flaws and any urgent maintenance issues and problems caused by gradual deterioration. We are looking for structural issues or signs that the property is a leaky building and issues caused by delayed maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting due to peeling paint or areas where there is damp or mould.
