Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Vital

You’ve found one that looks like it’s got everything you want. The real estate agent reckons it’s sturdy and solid, while your DIY professional acquaintance says it’s nice. Do you really have to have it examined?

If you are buying a home without conducting a pre purchase inspection and you end up with some expensive problems that could have been identified, you may severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages in the event that the home ended up with significant issues.

A pre purchase inspection report by a certified Oriental Bay building inspector will identify any problems the property has, as well as any future problems and highlight the areas where you are able to add value. It assures home buyers don’t have any nasty surprises and provides you with the chance to negotiate lower cost.

We inspect the entire building and look for any serious flaws, future or urgent maintenance issues , and any problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We search for structural issues or signs that the house is a leaky building, issues caused by deferred maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting because of peeling paint and areas where there is moisture or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

The following issues could be costly to solve:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if your home was constructed or rebuilt from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this pipe, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside cladding: Weatherside weatherboard can leak. If your house was built in the early 80s , it could be equipped with Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: Used in the late 1980s through the mid 2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have an unbroken or smooth appearance.

Asbestos construction: The use of asbestos was widespread from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It could be found installed on roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If you find asbestos in a property, get specialist advice on what risk it poses, the best way it could be removed, how long it would take to removeit, and the cost for removal.
