Is it important to get a home inspection before buying a new home?

It is of course very important to follow the pre-home inspection process before buying a house as buying a home is not like buying any other things, we have many desires and hopes for it like marriage and it involves a significant financial commitment.

Naturally, a small mistake while making a purchase can become a pain for a long time or forever.

Often buyers get caught up in finding the cheapest deal and overlook other important aspects like the builder's credibility or development of the location and get lured into lucrative things. 

Therefore, you should research thoroughly before buying your home.

Here are some inspection tips for HomeCheck and how a home inspection is done in Wellington. 

The actual cost of the house 

Whether the seller's demand is reasonable and what costs are included in the total home price that you pay to the seller for the property. Before signing the sale agreement papers you should also be aware of these various charges like maintenance charges, parking charges, etc.

Documents of the property

Documentation is an important part of the home buying process. You have to make sure that the seller hands over all the required documents of the house to you. 

Such as title deed, encumbrance certificate, property tax receipts, building completion certificate, building approved plan, occupancy certificate, etc.

The final area of the property

Often builders include the facilities area (parking, utility area) in the build-up/carpet area, which can lead to confusion. Check about the super-built-up area when you buy a property. 

Apart from this, also ensure that the construction, structure of the house is as per the guidelines of the regulating authority there.

What are the amenities of the house?

While buying a home, check that there are no discrepancies in the amenities promised with the house.
