The Reason Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Important

It’s great, you’ve found an apartment that appears like it ticks all the boxes. The real estate agent reckons it is solidly constructed and your DIY expert friend believes it’s good. Do you really need to get it checked?

If you’re purchasing a house without performing a pre inspection prior to purchase, not only could you be left with expensive issues that may not have been discovered, but it could also severely limit the ability to claim damages in the event that the home ended up with a significant issue.

A pre-purchase inspection report issued by an qualified Linden building inspector will reveal any issues the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future problems , and indicate areas that can be improved. It assures house buyers do not encounter any nasty unexpected costs and gives you the chance to negotiate a lower cost.

We check the entire property and identify any significant defects that could lead to urgent or future maintenance problems and issues caused by the gradual loss of quality. We check for structural issues or signs that the property is not in good repair or issues that result from deferred maintenance such as weatherboards rotting because of peeling paint and areas with damp or mould.
