Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

If you’re buying a home without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase, not only could you find yourself with some expensive issues that may not be identified, but you may severely limit the ability to claim damages if the home was to be stricken with an issue of significant importance.

A pre purchase building inspection report by a qualified Waipawa building inspector will highlight any flaws the property has, indicate any potential issues and highlight the areas where you are able to add value. This ensures house buyers do not face any nasty unexpected costs and gives you the chance to negotiate a lower price.

The property is inspected and find any major flaws that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues or problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We check for structural issues, any signs that the house has a leaky structure and issues caused by delayed maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten because of peeling paint, and areas where there is damp or mould.
