If you’re buying a home without performing a pre inspection prior to purchase but you could be left with expensive problems that could be identified, but you could severely limit your ability to seek damages in the event that the home has an issue of significant importance.

A pre-purchase inspection report from a certified Kelburn building inspector will identify any problems the property has, indicate any potential issues and highlight areas that can be improved. This assures house buyers do not face unpleasant shocks and also gives you an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

We inspect the entire building and determine any major defects as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues and problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We search for structural issues or any indication that the building has a leaky structure or issues that result from deferred maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten due to peeling paint and areas where there is damp or mould.
