Buying or building a house is a huge investment and can be very expensive on your budget. It is important that you carry out the necessary background check on your desired property before buying it. Be it a house, apartment, condominium, or a century-old villa that you plan to buy, getting the building inspected before purchase is a necessary step.
There are many types of inspections being carried out in the real estate market. Some of the most common ones are as follows:
- Pre-purchase inspection
- Pre-sale inspection
- Pre possession inspection
A pre-purchase inspection has to be carried out by the buyer, whereas a pre-sale inspection is carried out by the seller. Whatever is the type of inspection being carried out, reputed inspection firms like MCM triplex Inspection can help you with it.
In the case of a pre-purchase inspection, since it is carried out by the buyer’s side, the expenses have to be borne by you. But when you look at the amount of money and time you can save by doing a pre-purchase inspection, it is more like an investment than an expense.
After a clear-cut building inspection, there are many advantages like better renegotiation chances, a fair price for your deal, a better understanding of the health of your desired building, better safety concerns, etc.
All this is possible because an experienced building inspector with in-depth knowledge in the following areas is inspecting your house or office space:
- Building visual inspection
- Thermography reporting
- Master carpenter joiner
- Technologist in construction cost estimation
- Real estate valuation
The inspector will combine all the above-mentioned techniques to understand the current condition of your desired building and then make a detailed building inspection report. This report will have all the possible things that could harm the health of your building and the strength analysis of the whole structure.
Furthermore, a detailed inspection report will have the air quality check and moisture and mold presence analysis of your proposer house or office. In addition to that, all the pest infestation possibilities and present pest or rodent attacks will also be clearly mentioned. All this is on top of the material strength, insulation efficiency, and overall structural strength of the building in comparison to its age.
In short, the pre-purchase inspection of your desired building is not just a procedure to be followed before a real estate transaction, but a necessary step to be carried to ensure the safety of the building and transparency of your transaction.
