For potential buyers, they can use these issues to renegotiate repairs at an even lower price while getting the bang for their buck. On the other hand, sellers can identify these problems earlier, which will allow them to provide repairs that can boost the property value, making it sell faster.<\/p>\r\n<p>One of the main use cases for this commercial property inspection oriented form is also for third party inspectors, auditors and building maintenance companies to inspect their properties in a systematic way, protecting the parties involved with the property as well as their own asset and reputation as an asset owner.<\/p>\r\n<p>Getting inspections provides protection, potential savings, and unprecedented peace of mind, knowing the property&#8217;s condition is well-documented. Although property inspections can cost a lot, they prevent more expensive repairs and can spot these little damages before they turn into major fixes.<\/p>\r\n\t<h3>What sections of the property are typically inspected using the checklist?<\/h3>\r\n\t<p>Almost all property inspections will follow a property inspection checklist, which ensures they check and approve all of the different and important elements of the property. In most cases, this includes at least the following sections:<\/p>\r\n<ul>\r\n<li>Grounds inspection<\/li>\r\n<li>Structure of the property<\/li>\r\n<li>Attic<\/li>\r\n<li>Windows and doors<\/li>\r\n<li>Exterior surfaces<\/li>\r\n<li>Kitchens, bathrooms and interior rooms<\/li>\r\n<li>Plumbing, electrical and heating\/cooling systems<\/li>\r\n<li>Basement or mechanical room<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<p>After all of these sections are checked properly using the checklist, the corrective actions are then issued with the coherent action plans or fixes to be made within a specific time frame, including the people involved. Don&#8217;t forget to add the name and signature of the inspector, with the date and time it was done, to make it more reliable and easier to track.<\/p>\r\n<p>As you can see based on some of the checklist sections above, fields like &#8216;grounds inspection&#8217; are more commercial property inspection oriented, but can be applied to other types of buildings and properties too.<\/p>\r\n\t<h3>What are the consequences of not doing inspections?<\/h3>\r\n\t<p>Missing a property inspection is a dangerous game, as it can have destructive effects financially and legally speaking. Not doing property inspections creates a huge risk and misses out on identifying the structural issues, electrical problems, and even pests that can cost a lot of money, which can even cost more than the property value itself. Worst case, people miss out on legal support for these unidentified problems that could be code violations that may make the property unusable or unsellable.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n<p>Think of property inspections this way: It&#8217;s a small price to pay and a little hassle to do compared to the financial ruin they can cause when neglected and not done properly.<\/p>\r\n\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/sitemate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Vector-111-1.svg\" loading=\"lazy\" \/>\r\n\t<h2>Other popular property templates you can use and edit for free<\/h2>\r\n\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/sitemate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/New-construction-walkthrough-checklist-template.jpg\" alt=\"New-construction-walkthrough-checklist-template\" loading=\"lazy\" \/>\r\n\t<p>New Construction Walkthrough Checklist template<\/p>\r\n\t<p>Improve the quality of your walkthrough process and records as well as the quality of your construction works using this checklist.<\/p>\r\n\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/sitemate.com\/nz\/templates\/quality\/forms\/new-construction-walkthrough-checklist\/\" target=\"_self\">\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\tSee the template\r\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\r\n\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/sitemate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/Punchlist.jpg\" alt=\"construction punch list template\" loading=\"lazy\" \/>\r\n\t<p>Construction Punch List template<\/p>\r\n\t<p>Punch your way through those punch lists with this powerful template.<\/p>\r\n\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/sitemate.com\/nz\/templates\/quality\/forms\/construction-punch-list-template\/\" target=\"_self\">\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\tSee the template\r\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\r\n\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/sitemate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/New-build-snag-list-template.jpg\" alt=\"New-build-snag-list-template\" width=\"1200\" height=\"360\" \/>\r\n\t<p>New Build Snag List template<\/p>\r\n\t<p>Use this new build snag list to ensure all of your new builds are in tip-top shape, and properly documented and captured to resolve later disputes.<\/p>\r\n\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/sitemate.com\/nz\/templates\/quality\/forms\/new-build-snag-list\/\" target=\"_self\">\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\tSee the template\r\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\r\n\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/sitemate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Vector-112.svg\" loading=\"lazy\" \/>\r\n\t<h3>This Checklist template was created with and is managed with Dashpivot<\/h3>\r\n\t<p>You can keep your inspection records online, open them, edit them, or export them as a professionally formatted PDF document like you see to the right.<\/p>\r\n<ul>\r\n<li>Access, complete and edit any of your property inspection checklists on any mobile, tablet or computer.<\/li>\r\n<li>Add inspection photos to the checklist so records are comprehensive and bullet proof.<\/li>\r\n<li>Download, print or share any of your checklist records as professionally formatted PDF documents with your company logo and colours.<\/li>\r\n<li>Tailor the property inspection checklist template with easy drag-and-drop functionality.<\/li>\r\n<li>Display inspection records as a register to filter quickly for specific information.<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/sitemate.com\/nz\/quality\/property-inspection-app\/\" target=\"_self\">\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\tLearn more\r\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\r\n\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/sitemate.com\/nz\/software\/dashpivot\/demo\/\" target=\"_self\">\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\tWatch demo video\r\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\r\n\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/sitemate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Quotation-app-mobile-form.svg\" loading=\"lazy\" \/>\r\n\t<p>Sitemate builds best-in-class software tools for built world companies.<\/p>\r\n\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/sitemate.com\/nz\/\" target=\"_self\">\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\tLearn more\r\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\r\n\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/sitemate.com\/nz\/software\/dashpivot\/demo\/\" target=\"_self\">\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\tWatch demo videos\r\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\r\n\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/sitemate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Group-944-2.svg\" loading=\"lazy\" \/>\r\n\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/dashpivot.com\/signup?reference=property-inspection-checklist-template-direct&#038;templateId=5d102f7fab44581f3c83e0f6\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\tUse this template now\r\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Use and edit template for free Use this template now Property Inspection Checklist Template and PDF Use this template now Start with a free 30-day trial.
