Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Important

It’s great, you’ve found a property that looks like it’s got everything you want. The real estate agent says it is solidly built and your DIY professional friend says it looks nice. Do you really have to get it checked out?

If you are buying a house without doing a pre purchase inspection, not only could you find yourself with some costly problems that could have been identified, you may be severely limiting the ability to claim damages in the event that the house has a significant issue.

A pre-purchase inspection report issued by a certified Waitangirua building inspector will reveal any issues that the property may have, highlight any potential issues and highlight areas that can be improved. It assures house buyers do not encounter any nasty unexpected costs and also gives you the opportunity to negotiate a lower cost.

We check the entire property and look for any serious flaws, future or urgent maintenance issues or problems due to gradual decline. We are looking for structural issues and any indications that the building is not in good repair and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten because of peeling paint, and areas where there is damp or mould.
