Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Crucial

Excellent, you’ve found a property that looks like it ticks all the boxes. The real estate agent reckons it’s solidly built and your DIY specialist friend believes it’s fine. Do you really have to have it examined?

If you are buying a house without conducting a prior purchase inspection it’s possible to be left with costly issues that might have been discovered, but you could severely limit your options for claiming damages in the event that the house ended up with an issue of significant importance.

A pre-purchase building inspection report prepared by a qualified Karaka Bays building inspector will identify any problems the property has, as well as any future issues, and identify points that will add value. This assures home buyers don’t have unpleasant shocks and offers you an opportunity to negotiate lower price.

We inspect the entire building and identify any significant defects that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues or problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We look for structural problems or any indication that the property is a leaky building and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten due to peeling paint and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Asbestos construction: Used widely from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It could be found on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found at a property, get specialist assistance on the danger it poses, the best way it could be removed, the time it would require to remove, as well as the cost of removal.
