Why Are Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Vital

Excellent, you’ve found an apartment that appears like it’s got everything you want. The real estate agent reckons it is sturdy and solid, while your DIY specialist friend thinks it’s fine. Do you really need to get it checked out?

If you are buying a home without conducting a pre inspection prior to purchase but you could end up owning some pretty costly problems that could be identified, but it could also severely limit your options for claiming damages in the event that the house was to be stricken with an issue of significant importance.

A pre purchase building inspection report issued by an qualified Oriental Bay building inspector will reveal any issues the property has, indicate any future issues, and identify points that will add value. This will ensure that house buyers don’t have any nasty unexpected costs and gives you an opportunity to negotiate lower price.

We examine the entire structure and find any major flaws that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues , and any problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We search for structural issues or any indication that the house is not in good repair, issues caused by deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten due to peeling paint and areas with damp or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

Any of the following might be costly to deal with:

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if the household was constructed or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They are 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 can leak. If the household was built in the 1980s, it could have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: In the 1980s and into the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have an unbroken or smooth appearance.

Asbestos products: Used widely from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It could be found placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fences. If you find asbestos in the property, seek expert guidance on the risk it poses, the very best way it could be removed, the time it would be to get rid of, and the removal cost.
