Why Are Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Crucial

It’s great, you’ve found a property that looks like it meets all the criteria. The real estate agent reckons it is solidly constructed and your DIY specialist friend thinks it’s nice. Are you required to have it examined?

If you’re buying a home without conducting a pre inspection prior to purchase and you end up owning some pretty costly issues that might have been discovered, but it could also severely limit your ability to seek damages if the home has significant issues.

A pre-purchase inspection report issued by an certified Onekawa building inspector will identify any problems the property has, as well as any future issues, and identify the areas where you are able to add value. It will ensure that house buyers do not face any nasty shocks and provides you with an opportunity to negotiate lower price.

We inspect the entire building and identify any significant defects, future or urgent maintenance issues , and any problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We check for structural issues, any signs that the house is not in good repair, issues caused by deferred maintenance such as weatherboards rotting because of peeling paint and areas with damp or mould.
