What Are The Reason Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Important

Congratulations, you’ve discovered one that looks like it has all the right boxes ticked. The agent who is selling it says it’s sturdy and solid, while your DIY professional friend says it looks nice. Should you really check it out?

If you’re purchasing a house without conducting a prior inspection prior to purchase but you could find yourself with some expensive problems that could have been identified, you may be severely limiting your options for claiming damages in the event that the home has significant issues.

A pre-purchase building inspection report prepared by an qualified Oriental Bay building inspector will highlight any flaws that the property may have, highlight any potential issues and highlight areas that can be improved. This makes sure that home buyers do not encounter any nasty surprises and offers you the chance to negotiate lower cost.

The property is inspected and find any major flaws, future or urgent maintenance issues , and any problems due to gradual decline. We check for structural issues and any indications that the building is in need of repair or has issues due to delayed maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten because of peeling paint and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

Each of these could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if the house was constructed or rebuilt from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this piping, when you know they are there.

Weatherside siding: Weatherside weatherboard can leak. If the household was constructed in the early 80s it could have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: It was popular from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have a smooth, unbroken finish.

Asbestos construction: Used widely from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It can be found in roofs, ceilings underneath lino, or fences. If you find asbestos in the property, seek expert guidance on the risk it presents, how it might be removed, the length of time it will take to removeit, and the cost for removal.
