PROPERTY INSPECTIONS SOUTH AFRICA

A property inspection by a professional is key to being happy in that new place, irrespective of whether you will be buying or renting the property. The money paid to a professional to inspect a property will save you both money and drama when defects suddenly show or unexpected maintenance or repairs are required.

WHY PROPERTY INSPECTIONS ARE IMPORTANT TO DO WHEN BUYING A PROPERTY

Most South Africans are first-time buyers and make a huge investment decision that will bind them for 20 years or more based on little support and information. Estate agents are often biased and, therefore, not reliable information sources.

A professional inspection is therefore recommended before buying a new property or with the start or the end of a rental contract. The visual inspection is designed to provide an objective opinion on the current condition and patent defects in a home or office building.

Julies Attorneys will assign a team of qualified artisans to inspect the home and provide a report against the context of the Offer-to-Purchase. This will give the prospective buyer or seller an accurate estimation of the value of the property, whether the rent charged is reasonable and identify maintenance and repair requirements, given the defects that were identified. The buyer or tenant then has a more realistic view of what s/he will be renting or buying.

By having a property inspected by Julies Attorneys, buyers can have confidence that they are making a sound investment and that most of the potential issues with the property have been identified and addressed.
