The Reasons Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Crucial

Excellent, you’ve found a property that looks like it has all the right boxes ticked. The real estate agent reckons it’s well-built and your DIY specialist acquaintance says it’s nice. Are you required to have it examined?

If you are buying a home without performing a pre purchase inspection and you end up with some expensive issues that may not have been identified, you may be severely limiting your options for claiming damages if the home ended up with a significant issue.

A pre-purchase inspection report by an qualified Oriental Bay building inspector will identify any problems the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any potential issues and highlight areas that can be improved. It assures home buyers do not face unpleasant shocks and provides you with the chance to negotiate lower price.

We inspect the entire building and find any major flaws, future or urgent maintenance problems and issues caused by gradual deterioration. We check for structural issues or signs that the house has a leaky structure and issues caused by delayed maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten because of peeling paint and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

Each of these could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if your home was built or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this pipe when you know they are there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: Weatherside weatherboard is known for its leaks. If your household was constructed in the 1980s, it could have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used from the 1980s to the mid-2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually are smooth or unbroken appearance.

Asbestos building materials: Used widely from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It can be found placed on roofs, ceilings, in lino under fences. If you find asbestos in a property, get specialist guidance on the risk it poses, how it can be removed, the time it would be to get rid of, and the price of removal.
