What Are The Reasons Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Crucial

It’s great, you’ve found the perfect property, and it appears that it ticks all the boxes. The real estate agent reckons it’s well-built and your DIY professional friend says it looks fine. Do you really need to have it examined?

If you’re buying a house without conducting a prior purchase inspection, not only could you end up owning some pretty expensive issues that may not be identified, but you may be severely limiting your options for claiming damages in the event that the house resulted in an issue of significant importance.

A pre-purchase building inspection report issued by a qualified Oriental Bay building inspector will identify any problems the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future problems and highlight areas to add value. It ensures home buyers don’t face unpleasant surprises and provides you with the chance to negotiate lower price.

We inspect the entire building and find any major flaws that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues or problems due to gradual decline. We look for structural problems, any signs that the building is a leaky building and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten because of peeling paint and areas with damp or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

Each of these could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if your home was built or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this pipe if you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: The weatherboard can leak. If the home was constructed in the early 80s , it may have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: Used from the 1980s until the mid-2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically feature a smooth or undulating appearance.

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 asbestos is found in an address, you should seek out expert assistance on the danger it presents, how it can be removed how long it will be to get rid of, and the price of removal.
