Prices are soaring, competition is fierce, and behind that fresh renovation you may find issues left untouched. With fast deadlines and the pressure that can come with purchasing a property, it can be tricky to get all your due diligence done.
Imagine moving in to your new home, only to find termites chewing the frame, or a roof that leaks the first time it rains. Not fun! That is why you need a pre-purchase inspection.
What is a Pre-Purchase Inspection?
A pre-purchase inspection is essentially a health check for a house before you sign.
First comes the building check. Walls, roofs, floors, windows. Cracks, leaks and sloppy patch jobs appear quickly if you know where to look.
Next comes the pest check. Termites, borers and wood fungi. Whether they are active now or left their mark years ago, they cause damage most buyers will not see until the repair bills arrive.
Why NSW Buyers Need to Consider One
The truth is that termites love this state. And no, your insurer will not cover the damage. A serious repair can cost more than ten thousand dollars before you even start on cosmetic fixes.
But here is the upside, as an inspection report is leverage. If problems are found you can push for a lower price, get the seller to fix them, or walk away. Better to lose a house than buy a headache as they say.
And peace of mind matters. Nobody wants to lie awake at night realising they have bought a lemon. This is where a buyers agent can also help you.
