Why Are Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Crucial

You’ve found one that looks like it ticks all the boxes. A real estate agent believes it is solidly built and your DIY expert friend believes it’s nice. Do you really have to get it checked?

If you are buying a house without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase and you end up with some expensive issues that may not have been discovered, but you could severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages in the event that the house was to be stricken with a significant issue.

A pre-purchase inspection report prepared by a certified Karaka Bays building inspector will identify any problems that the property may have, highlight any future problems , and indicate the areas where you can add value. It makes sure that home buyers do not face unpleasant surprise and provides you with the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

We check the entire property and determine any major defects and any urgent maintenance problems and issues due to gradual decline. We check for structural issues, any signs that the building is not in good repair and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards rotting due to peeling paint or areas with damp or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

Each of these could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if the home was constructed or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this pipe if you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: Weatherside weatherboard has been known to leak. If your household was built in the early 80s , it could have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: Used from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s A lot of "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have an unbroken or smooth surface.

Asbestos products: Widely used since the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It could be found placed on roofs, ceilings, underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is found at a property, get specialist advice on what risk it poses, the very best way it can be removed, the length of time it will take to removeit, and the cost for removal.
