7 Benefits of a Building Inspection
Are you planning to buy a new home soon? A building inspection is almost always mandatory when financing a new home. A building inspection also offers several advantages. We've summarized them for you.
1. You know what you are buying
Thanks to an inspection, you know what you're buying and don't have to worry about hidden defects. This means you're not buying a pig in a poke, and you won't be faced with unexpectedly high costs later on.
2. Useful in negotiations
A building report is very useful during purchase negotiations. A solid foundation will give you a stronger footing. When incurring additional costs, you naturally offer below the asking price.
3. Building buyer confidence
As a seller, a building inspection can build buyer confidence. You can also inform a buyer about the options available to ensure a property is in optimal condition. Moreover, this allows you, as the seller, to comply with your legal reporting requirements.
4. Insight into current state
For a homeowners' association (VvE) manager, a building inspection report provides insight into the current status of a property and makes it easier to develop a policy plan for the future. This can, of course, serve as the basis for the budget.
5. An inspection provides certainty
A building inspection always provides certainty. It builds trust and also accelerates the sales process.
6. Insight into additional costs
Additional costs are never fun when buying a home. Fortunately, a report gives you insight into the extra costs that a potential renovation or improvement will entail.
7. Financial overview
A building inspection report provides insight into the costs involved in a renovation. You can take this into account when financing a home.
