What Are The Reason Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Vital

Excellent, you’ve found one that looks like it meets all the criteria. A real estate agent believes it’s well-built and your DIY professional friend says it looks great. Do you really need to get it checked?

If you are buying a house without conducting a prior inspection prior to purchase and you end up with some expensive issues that may not have been identified, you may be severely limiting your options for claiming damages in the event that the home ended up with significant issues.

A pre purchase inspection report issued by an certified Karaka Bays building inspector will show up any defects the property has, indicate any future issues, and identify areas to add value. This assures house buyers do not face any nasty unexpected costs and also gives you the opportunity to negotiate a lower cost.

We inspect the entire building and determine any major defects as well as any future or urgent maintenance problems and issues caused by the gradual loss of quality. We check for structural issues, any signs that the building is in need of repair and issues caused by delayed maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting due to peeling paint or areas with damp or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

The following issues could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if the house was constructed or rebuilt from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this piping, in the event that you knew they were there.

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

Monolithic Plaster cladding: In the 1980s until the mid-2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually feature a smooth or undulating surface.

Asbestos products: The use of asbestos was widespread from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It is often found on ceilings, roofs, underneath lino, or fences. If you find asbestos in a property, get specialist advice about the risks it presents, how it might be removed, how long it would take to remove, and the price of removal.
