Why Should You Consider a Pre-Purchase Building Inspection
Peace of mind knowing that you’re making a well-informed decision about your future purchase.
If any major problems are found during the inspection, you may want to consider renegotiating your purchase price with the seller or walking away from the deal altogether.
Additionally, if any items identified during the inspection need to be repaired or replaced, you’ll have time to factor those costs into your budget before making your final decision about whether to purchase the property
