Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Vital

Congratulations, you’ve discovered a property that looks like it meets all the criteria. The agent who is selling it says it is sturdy and solid, while your DIY expert acquaintance says it’s great. Do you really have to get it checked?

If you’re purchasing a home without performing a pre inspection prior to purchase but you could end up owning some pretty expensive problems that could be identified, but you may be severely limiting the possibility of pursuing damages if the house resulted in a significant issue.

A pre-purchase building inspection report by a certified Oriental Bay building inspector will show up any defects the property has, indicate any future issues, and identify areas to add value. This assures house buyers do not face any nasty surprise and gives you the chance to negotiate lower price.

We examine the entire structure and look for any serious flaws and any urgent maintenance issues , and any problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We are looking for structural issues and any indications that the building has a leaky structure or has issues due to delayed maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten because of peeling paint and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

Any of the following could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if your household was constructed or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and 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.

Weathersideexterior cladding: The weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the home was constructed in the 1980s, it could have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used in the late 1980s through the mid 2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have a smooth, unbroken appearance.

Asbestos building materials: Used widely from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It can be found in roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If you find asbestos in the location, seek professional assistance on the danger it presents, how it can be removed, how long it will take to remove, and the price of removal.
