Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Crucial

Excellent, you’ve found an apartment that appears like it’s got everything you want. The real estate agent reckons it is solidly built and your DIY specialist friend thinks it’s fine. Should you really have it examined?

If you are buying a home without performing a pre inspection prior to purchase and you end up owning some pretty expensive issues that may not have been identified, you may be severely limiting your options for claiming damages in the event that the house was to be stricken with significant issues.

A pre purchase building inspection report prepared by a qualified Oriental Bay building inspector will identify any problems the property has, indicate any potential issues and highlight areas that can be improved. This will make sure that home buyers don’t face any nasty unexpected costs and also gives you the chance to negotiate a lower price.

We check the entire property and identify any significant defects that could lead to urgent or future maintenance problems and issues that are caused by the gradual degradation. We check for structural issues or any indication that the house is a leaky building or issues that result from deferred maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting due to peeling paint or areas with damp or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Each of these could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if the household was constructed or rebuilt from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this pipe in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: Weatherside weatherboard is known for its leaks. If your house was built in the 1980s, it might have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: It was popular from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have a smooth, unbroken finish.

Asbestos building materials: Used widely from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It may be in roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If you find asbestos in an address, you should seek out expert guidance on the risk it poses, how it can be removed how long it would take to removeit, and the cost of removal.
