The Reason Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Vital

It’s great, you’ve found an apartment that appears like it has all the right boxes ticked. The agent who is selling it says it’s well-built and your DIY specialist acquaintance says it’s good. Are you required to have it examined?

If you’re buying a home without conducting a prior purchase inspection but you could find yourself with some expensive issues that may not be discovered, but you may be severely limiting your options for claiming damages if the house has significant problems.

A pre-purchase building inspection report from a qualified Karori building inspector will show up any defects that the property may have, highlight any future problems and highlight points that will add value. This ensures home buyers do not face unpleasant unexpected costs and also gives you the chance to negotiate a lower price.

We examine the entire structure and identify any significant defects that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues and problems caused by gradual deterioration. We search for structural issues or any indication that the building is in need of repair and issues caused by delayed maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten due to peeling paint or areas that are damp or mould.
