Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Important

Congratulations, you’ve discovered a property that looks like it’s got everything you want. The agent who is selling it says it is solidly constructed and your DIY specialist friend believes it’s nice. Should you really check it out?

If you purchase a house without performing a pre inspection prior to purchase and you end up owning some pretty expensive problems that could have been discovered, but it could also severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages in the event that the house resulted in significant issues.

A pre-purchase inspection report from an certified Aotea building inspector will identify any problems that the property may have, highlight any future problems and highlight areas that can be improved. This ensures home buyers do not encounter unpleasant shocks and also gives you an opportunity to negotiate lower price.

We inspect the entire building and look for any serious flaws that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues and problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We look for structural problems or any indication that the house is not in good repair, issues caused by deferred maintenance such as weatherboards rotting due to peeling paint or areas with damp or mould.
