If you’re purchasing a home without conducting a pre inspection prior to purchase, not only could you end up with some expensive issues that may not be discovered, but it could also severely limit the ability to claim damages if the house was to be stricken with a significant issue.

A pre-purchase building inspection report prepared by an qualified Karaka Bays building inspector will highlight any flaws that the property may have, highlight any potential issues and highlight the areas where you can add value. This assures home buyers do not encounter unpleasant unexpected costs and offers you the chance to negotiate lower price.

The property is inspected and find any major flaws that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues and problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We look for structural problems or signs that the property is not in good repair or has issues due to delayed maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten due to peeling paint or areas that are damp or mould.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used in the 1980s until the mid-2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually have a smooth, unbroken surface.

Asbestos building materials: It was widely used from the the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It may be installed on roofs, ceilings in lino under fences.
