The Reason Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Important

You’ve found an apartment that appears like it’s got everything you want. A real estate agent believes it’s solidly constructed and your DIY expert friend says it looks nice. Do you really need to check it out?

If you’re buying a house without conducting a pre inspection prior to purchase and you end up with some expensive issues that may not have been discovered, but you may severely limit your options for claiming damages if the house was to be stricken with a significant issue.

A pre-purchase inspection report by a qualified Frimley building inspector will show up any defects the property has, indicate any potential issues and highlight areas to add value. This ensures house buyers don’t face any nasty unexpected costs and provides you with an opportunity to negotiate lower price.

We check the entire property and find any major flaws that could lead to urgent or future maintenance problems and issues caused by the gradual loss of quality. We look for structural problems or any indication that the building is not in good repair or has issues due to delayed maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten because of peeling paint and areas where there is moisture or mould.
