Why Are Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

Congratulations, you’ve discovered an apartment that appears like it ticks all the boxes. The agent who is selling it says it’s sturdy and solid, while your DIY expert friend says it looks good. Do you really need to have it examined?

If you purchase a home without conducting a prior purchase inspection but you could be left with expensive problems that could be discovered, but you may be severely limiting the ability to claim damages if the home was to be stricken with significant issues.

A pre-purchase inspection report prepared by a certified Island Bay building inspector will show up any defects the property has, indicate any future problems , and indicate areas to add value. This assures house buyers do not face any nasty unexpected costs and offers you the chance to negotiate lower cost.

We inspect the entire building and look for any serious flaws, future or urgent maintenance issues , and any problems due to gradual decline. We check for structural issues, any signs that the house has a leaky structure or has issues due to delayed maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten because of peeling paint and areas with damp or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

Any of the following could be costly to solve:

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if the household was constructed or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this pipe, if you knew they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: The weatherboard is known to leak. If the household was constructed in the early 80s , it may have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used in the late 1980s through the mid 2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have an unbroken or smooth surface.

Asbestos products: It was widely used from the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It can be found on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fences. If asbestos is discovered in an address, you should seek out expert assistance on the danger it poses, the very best way it can be removed the length of time it will be to get rid of, and the cost of removal.

Does that alteration have an approval from the building department? Complete building inspection reports can uncover what building work doesn't have a building permit.
