The Reason Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

Excellent, you’ve found the perfect property, and it appears that it’s got everything you want. The agent who is selling it says it is well-built and your DIY professional friend thinks it’s good. Do you really have to get it checked?

If you’re purchasing a house without conducting a prior inspection prior to purchase and you end up owning some pretty expensive problems that could be identified, but you may be severely limiting the ability to claim damages in the event that the home was to be stricken with significant problems.

A pre purchase building inspection report prepared by an certified Karaka Bays building inspector will identify any problems the property has, indicate any future issues, and identify areas to add value. It assures house buyers don’t face unpleasant surprises and gives you the chance to negotiate a lower cost.

We inspect the entire building and determine any major defects and any urgent maintenance problems and issues caused by gradual deterioration. We look for structural problems and any indications that the house is not in good repair or has issues due to delayed maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten due to peeling paint or areas where there is moisture or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

Any of the following could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if your home was built or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage 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 80s, it may have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used in the 1980s and into the mid-2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically are smooth or unbroken finish.

Asbestos products: It was widely used from the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It is often found installed on roofs, ceilings underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is found at a property, get specialist assistance on the danger it presents, how it can be removed, the length of time it will require to remove, as well as the cost of removal.
