What Are The Reason Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

Excellent, you’ve found a property that looks like it ticks all the boxes. The real estate agent says it’s solidly built and your DIY professional acquaintance says it’s great. Do you really have to check it out?

If you purchase a home without doing a pre purchase inspection and you be left with costly problems that could have been identified, you could severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages if the house ended up with significant issues.

A pre purchase building inspection report from a qualified Karaka Bays building inspector will show up any defects that the property may have, highlight any potential issues and highlight areas that can be improved. It makes sure that house buyers do not face any nasty shocks and gives you the chance to negotiate a lower price.

We inspect the entire building and look for any serious flaws that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues , and any problems due to gradual decline. We search for structural issues or any indication that the building is a leaky building or has issues due to delayed maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting because of peeling paint, and areas where there is damp or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

Any of the following might be costly to solve:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if your house was built or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage that is caused by this type of pipe, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside cladding: Weatherside weatherboard is known to leak. If your home was built in the early 80s , it might have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: In the 1980s to the mid-2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally feature a smooth or undulating finish.

Asbestos construction: Used widely from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It is often found in roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found in a property, get specialist assistance on the danger it presents, how it can be removed, the time it would take to removeit, and the removal cost.
