Building Inspection Costs – Do you really need this extra expense?
A home is most likely the biggest purchase you’ll ever make, so it’s important to guarantee that it’s money well-spent. For the less-informed buyers, a pre-purchase home inspection may seem like an unnecessary cost.
However, with the costs of actually buying (and owning) a home going up, it’s vital that you can be sure of a property’s value or potential repair and maintenance costs via a property inspection.
How much does a building inspection cost?
Here at The Property Inspectors, we want to make sure you’re getting the most for your money. Property inspection costs are calculated on a range of different factors, including:
- Property size: More than just number of bedrooms; how large is the whole building?
- Type of property: Is it an apartment, unit, or freestanding home?
- Design and complexity: Does it have multiple stories? Have many changes been made to the original design?
- Age of the home: What building code was it constructed under? What materials were commonly used at that time?
Once I know the specifics, I can calculate the home inspection costs to generate a comprehensive building inspection report.
The cost of going without
If you’re still uncertain about investing in a property or home inspection, consider the costs of going without one. There are many potential faults a house could have that only an experienced property inspector like myself can detect, and a building inspection report is the best way to ensure that you’re buying a quality home. In this competitive housing market, you don’t want to spend $1 million on a house that will end up costing you a lot more than minimal building inspection costs!
Property inspection costs in perspective.
Faulty homes contain the hidden cost of repair work—which could be in the hundreds of thousands should you wind up with a leaky home. If you’re happy to spend a couple of hundred dollars inspecting a $10,000 car, surely it’s worthwhile spending a few hundred on a building inspection for a million-dollar property?
