If you purchase a home without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase, not only could you be left with costly problems that could be identified, but it could also severely limit your ability to seek damages if the home was to be stricken with a significant issue.

A pre purchase inspection report by a certified Karaka Bays building inspector will show up any defects the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future problems and highlight the areas where you can add value. This assures house buyers don’t face any nasty shocks and offers you an opportunity to negotiate lower price.

The property is inspected and find any major flaws and any urgent maintenance problems and issues caused by gradual deterioration. We search for structural issues or any indication that the property has a leaky structure or issues that result from deferred maintenance such as weatherboards rotting because of peeling paint and areas where there is damp or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

Any of the following could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if your home was constructed or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this piping, in the event that you knew they were there.

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

Cladding made of Plaster: In the 1980s to the mid-2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically are smooth or unbroken surface.

Asbestos products: Used widely from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It could be found on ceilings, roofs, in lino under fences. If asbestos is found in the location, seek professional advice about the risks it presents, how it can be removed the length of time it will take to remove, and the cost of removal.
