Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Important

Congratulations, you’ve discovered the perfect property, and it appears that it’s got everything you want. The real estate agent says it is sturdy and solid, while your DIY specialist friend thinks it’s nice. Do you really need to check it out?

If you’re purchasing a house without performing a pre inspection prior to purchase, not only could you be left with expensive problems that could have been discovered, but it could also severely limit your options for claiming damages in the event that the home resulted in an issue of significant importance.

A pre purchase inspection report issued by an certified Oriental Bay building inspector will identify any problems the property has, indicate any potential issues and highlight the areas where you are able to add value. It makes sure that house buyers do not encounter unpleasant surprises and gives you the opportunity to negotiate a lower cost.

We inspect the entire building and look for any serious flaws, future or urgent maintenance problems and issues due to gradual decline. We search for structural issues, any signs that the property is in require of repair, issues caused by deferred maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting because of peeling paint and areas where there is damp or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

Each of these could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if the household was constructed or rebuilt between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this pipe, when you know they are there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: Weatherside weatherboard can leak. If the household was constructed in the 80s, it may have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: It was popular from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually have a smooth, unbroken surface.

Asbestos construction: Widely used since the the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It is often found placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fencing. If you find asbestos in a property, get specialist advice about the risks it poses, how it can be removed, how long it would take to removeit, and the price of removal.
