It’s great, you’ve found an apartment that appears like it ticks all the boxes. A real estate agent believes it’s well-built and your DIY specialist friend believes it’s fine. Do you really have to get it checked?

If you purchase a house without performing a pre inspection prior to purchase but you could be left with costly issues that might be identified, but you may be severely limiting your options for claiming damages in the event that the home has significant problems.

A pre purchase inspection report by an certified Karaka Bays building inspector will show up any defects the property has, indicate any potential issues and highlight areas to add value. It will ensure that house buyers do not face any nasty unexpected costs and provides you with the chance to negotiate a lower cost.

The property is inspected and identify any significant defects that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues and problems caused by gradual deterioration. We check for structural issues and any indications that the property is a leaky building or issues that result from deferred maintenance such as weatherboards rotting because of peeling paint and areas where there is moisture or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Any of the following might be costly to solve:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if the house was constructed or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurers are unlikely cover damage that is caused by this type of pipe, if you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: The weatherboard has been known to leak. If the home was constructed in the early 80s , it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used from the 1980s until the mid-2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually feature a smooth or undulating surface.

Asbestos building materials: Widely used since the around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It could be found in roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If you find asbestos in a property, get specialist advice on what risk it poses, the best way it can be removed the time it would take to remove, and the removal cost.
