The Reasons Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Vital

You’ve found one that looks like it ticks all the boxes. The agent who is selling it says it is solidly built and your DIY professional friend believes it’s good. Do you really have to check it out?

If you are buying a home without conducting a pre inspection prior to purchase but you could end up with some expensive problems that could be discovered, but you could severely limit your options for claiming damages if the house ended up with significant problems.

A pre-purchase inspection report issued by an qualified Karaka Bays building inspector will highlight any flaws the property has, indicate any future issues, and identify areas to add value. This ensures home buyers do not encounter any nasty shocks and provides you with an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

The property is inspected and determine any major defects, future or urgent maintenance issues , and any problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We search for structural issues, any signs that the house is a leaky building and issues caused by delayed maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting because of peeling paint and areas with damp or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

The following issues could be costly to solve:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if your household was constructed or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this piping, when you know they are there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: The weatherboard can leak. If your home was built in the early 80s , it could have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: It was popular from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have an unbroken or smooth surface.

Asbestos construction: It was widely used from the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It can be found installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found in an address, you should seek out expert guidance on the risk it poses, the best way it can be removed the length of time it will take to removeit, and the cost of removal.
