What Are The Reasons Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Crucial

It’s great, you’ve found an apartment that appears like it meets all the criteria. The real estate agent reckons it’s solidly constructed and your DIY professional friend believes it’s great. Are you required to check it out?

If you’re buying a house without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase, not only could you find yourself with some expensive issues that may not have been discovered, but you could severely limit your options for claiming damages in the event that the home has an issue of significant importance.

A pre purchase building inspection report issued by a certified Crofton Downs building inspector will highlight any flaws the property has, indicate any future issues, and identify areas to add value. This ensures house buyers don’t face unpleasant surprise and offers you an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

We examine the entire structure and determine any major defects and any urgent maintenance issues and problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We look for structural problems or any indication that the house is a leaky building and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards rotting due to peeling paint and areas with damp or mould.
