Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Important

You’ve found a property that looks like it has all the right boxes ticked. The real estate agent says it’s well-built and your DIY expert friend thinks it’s good. Do you really have to get it checked out?

If you purchase a house without performing a pre purchase inspection and you end up with some costly issues that might have been identified, you could severely limit your ability to seek damages if the house was to be stricken with a significant issue.

A pre-purchase building inspection report by a qualified Frimley building inspector will show up any defects that the property may have, highlight any future problems and highlight areas to add value. It makes sure that home buyers do not encounter any nasty shocks and gives you an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

We check the entire property and find any major flaws that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues or problems caused by gradual deterioration. We search for structural issues and any indications that the house is not in good repair or has issues due to delayed maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten because of peeling paint and areas where there is moisture or mould.
