Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Important

Congratulations, you’ve discovered a property that looks like it ticks all the boxes. The real estate agent reckons it’s well-built and your DIY specialist friend believes it’s good. Should you really check it out?

If you purchase a home without conducting a pre purchase inspection, not only could you end up owning some pretty costly problems that could have been discovered, but it could also severely limit the ability to claim damages if the home was to be stricken with significant problems.

A pre purchase building inspection report by a qualified Oriental Bay building inspector will identify any problems the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any potential issues and highlight areas to add value. This will ensure that home buyers don’t face any nasty shocks and provides you with the chance to negotiate lower price.

We examine the entire structure and find any major flaws, future or urgent maintenance issues or problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We look for structural problems or any indication that the building is in require of repair and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards rotting due to peeling paint or areas where there is moisture or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Any of the following might be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if the home was built or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this pipe, when you know they are there.

Weatherside siding: This weatherboard has been known to leak. If your household was constructed in the early 80s , it could have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: Used in the 1980s and into the mid-2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically are smooth or unbroken finish.

Asbestos construction: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It can be found in roofs, ceilings underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is discovered in the property, seek expert assistance on the danger it presents, how it can be removed, how long it would require to remove, as well as the cost of removal.
