Inspections – The Most Important Pre-Purchase Decision

September 18th, 2009 Rick Van Newsteed No comments

Before you sign that home purchase contract, take the time to think about whether you know what you’re getting. Every home buyer needs to make certain that they have a qualified building inspector check out their new house. This means hiring a private inspector, not just relying on the inspectors from your local government to protect you.

There’s more than one kind of inspection report, and which one you’ll choose will depend on what you need out of your inspection. If you only want to know about structural items like the ceiling and roof, the walls, floors and footings, you should choose a structural report. This is best if you feel like you’re qualified to do the non-structural parts of the inspection, or if you’re planning a total renovation anyway.

If you don’t think you’re up to doing non-structural inspections on your own, you can choose a report that will handle the entire building. That way you’ll be entitled to a report on all the structural elements, plus plumbing and power, cabinets, doors and windows, termite damage, drainage systems and more. This is almost a complete audit of your new house, and will help you know about problems before they can affect you.

Don’t feel like you can skip getting a good quality building inspection performed. It’ll cost you a little, but it’ll make sure there are no hidden structural defects or areas where the maintenance has been neglected. Nobody likes unpleasant surprises, and there’s nothing more unpleasant than discovering a termite infestation or a damaged roof!

This kind of damage in your new home could be extremely expensive to repair, and may make you wish you’d never spent the money. Taking the time to have a good quality report done by a registered engineer or builder is just a smart step to protect yourself. You can’t do without it.

You may be surprised by the number of sound looking houses that turn out to have something serious wrong with them. There are so many things that could happen to an otherwise perfectly good house. Bad wiring, leaky plumbing, cracked foundations and walls, unstable floors and rising damp are all things you need to know about before you buy.

Take the time to find out about your inspector, too. Make sure you’re working with someone who has a lot of experience and a good reputation for thorough inspections. That will help you make sure that the home you’re buying is really the one you’re paying for.

If you’re very lucky, your inspector won’t find any problems in your new home, and you’ll be able to be certain that your house is ready for you to live in it. On the other hand, if you do find damage, at least you’ll know about it in advance. After all, no one wants to pay too much for a house that isn’t what they had in mind.

BSP’s team of Building Inspectors are all either Registered Builders or Structural Engineers. Move into your new home with confidence in knowing the exact structural condition of the property, and knowing what maintenance repairs may be required.
