Why Are Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Important

Excellent, you’ve found a property that looks like it ticks all the boxes. A real estate agent believes it is well-built and your DIY professional friend thinks it’s nice. Are you required to get it checked out?

If you are buying a house without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase it is possible to be left with expensive problems that could be discovered, but it could also severely limit your ability to seek damages in the event that the house ended up with significant issues.

A pre purchase inspection report from an qualified Oriental Bay building inspector will reveal any issues the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future problems , and indicate areas to add value. This will make sure that house buyers don’t have unpleasant unexpected costs and also gives you the chance to negotiate lower cost.

The property is inspected and identify any significant defects, future or urgent maintenance issues and problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We search for structural issues or signs that the property has a leaky structure or issues that result from deferred maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting because of peeling paint, and areas with damp or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

Any of the following could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if your home was constructed or rebuilt from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this pipe, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: This weatherboard has been known to leak. If your house was constructed in the 1980s, it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: Used in the 1980s and into the mid-2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically feature a smooth or undulating appearance.

Asbestos products: Used widely from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It could be found on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fences. If you find asbestos in the property, seek expert advice about the risks it poses, the best way it can be removed, how long it will take to removeit, and the cost of removal.
