What Are The Reasons Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Vital

Congratulations, you’ve discovered a property that looks like it meets all the criteria. The real estate agent reckons it’s well-built and your DIY expert friend says it looks good. Do you really have to get it checked?

If you purchase a house without conducting a pre purchase inspection and you find yourself with some expensive issues that may not be discovered, but it could also severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages in the event that the home has an issue of significant importance.

A pre-purchase building inspection report from an certified Karaka Bays building inspector will show up any defects the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future problems and highlight areas that can be improved. This makes sure that house buyers do not face unpleasant shocks and also gives you the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

The property is inspected and look for any serious flaws, future or urgent maintenance issues and problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We are looking for structural issues and any indications that the building is not in good repair and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards rotting because of peeling paint and areas that are damp or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

The following issues could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if the household was constructed or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this piping, even if you were aware that they were there.

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

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: Used in the late 1980s through the mid 2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have a smooth, unbroken finish.

Asbestos products: It was widely used from the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It could be found in roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found at the property, seek expert advice about the risks it poses, the very best way it can be removed how long it would take to removeit, and the cost for removal.
