If you’re buying a home without conducting a pre inspection prior to purchase, not only could you find yourself with some expensive problems that could have been discovered, but it could also severely limit your options for claiming damages in the event that the home was to be stricken with significant issues.

A pre-purchase building inspection report issued by an certified Aotea building inspector will reveal any issues that the property may have, highlight any future problems , and indicate the areas where you can add value. This will make sure that house buyers don’t have any nasty unexpected costs and provides you with the opportunity to negotiate a lower cost.

The property is inspected and find any major flaws as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues and problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We look for structural problems or signs that the building is a leaky building or issues that result from deferred maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten due to peeling paint or areas where there is moisture or mould.
