Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Crucial

You’ve found an apartment that appears like it meets all the criteria. The real estate agent reckons it is solidly built and your DIY expert friend believes it’s fine. Are you required to get it checked out?

If you’re purchasing a home without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase it’s imaginable to be left with expensive issues that may not have been discovered, but you may be severely limiting the possibility of pursuing damages if the home resulted in significant issues.

A pre-purchase inspection report issued by a certified Island Bay building inspector will highlight any flaws the property has, as well as any potential issues and highlight areas to add value. This assures home buyers don’t face any nasty unexpected costs and offers you an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

The property is inspected and determine any major defects, future or urgent maintenance issues , and any problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We check for structural issues, any signs that the property is a leaky building or issues that result from deferred maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten because of peeling paint, and areas that are damp or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Any of the following might be costly to solve:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if the home was constructed or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this piping, when you know they are there.

Weatherside cladding: Weatherside weatherboard can leak. If your household was built in the early 80s , it may have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: In the 1980s until the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky homes" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually have a smooth, unbroken finish.

Asbestos construction: It was widely used from the the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It may be on ceilings, roofs, underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is found at the property, seek expert advice about the risks it poses, the best way it might be removed, how long it will take to removeit, and the price of removal.

Inspections of the property also known as house inspections are a must these days when buying the house. With the rising cost of houses and the rising costs of building maintenance, it is important to know exactly what you're buying.
