What Are The Reasons Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

You’ve found one that looks like it has all the right boxes ticked. A real estate agent believes it’s solidly constructed and your DIY professional acquaintance says it’s great. Are you required to have it examined?

If you’re purchasing a home without performing a pre purchase inspection it’s possible to end up with some costly issues that might be identified, but you may be severely limiting your ability to seek damages in the event that the home has an issue of significant importance.

A pre purchase building inspection report prepared by an certified Pakipaki building inspector will highlight any flaws the property has, indicate any future issues, and identify areas that can be improved. This makes sure that home buyers do not face unpleasant unexpected costs and offers you the opportunity to negotiate a lower cost.

We check the entire property and determine any major defects and any urgent maintenance issues and problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We search for structural issues and any indications that the house is a leaky building or has issues due to delayed maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting due to peeling paint or areas where there is damp or mould.
