The Reasons Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Important

You’ve found a property that looks like it has all the right boxes ticked. A real estate agent believes it’s solidly constructed and your DIY professional friend says it looks nice. Do you really have to get it checked out?

If you purchase a home without conducting a pre purchase inspection it is possible to find yourself with some costly problems that could be discovered, but you could severely limit the ability to claim damages if the home ended up with a significant issue.

A pre purchase building inspection report from an qualified Karaka Bays building inspector will highlight any flaws that the property may have, highlight any future problems and highlight points that will add value. This ensures home buyers do not face unpleasant unexpected costs and provides you with the chance to negotiate lower price.

We check the entire property and look for any serious flaws as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues and problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We are looking for structural issues, any signs that the building has a leaky structure, issues caused by deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten because of peeling paint, and areas with damp or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Each of these could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if your house was built or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurers are unlikely cover damage that is caused by this type of pipe, if you knew they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: The weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the house was built in the 80s, it could have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: Used from the 1980s until the mid-2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically feature a smooth or undulating finish.

Asbestos building materials: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It can be found placed on roofs, ceilings, in lino under fences. If asbestos is found at the property, seek expert assistance on the danger it poses, the best way it could be removed, how long it would require to remove, as well as the cost of removal.
