What Are The Reason Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Important

Excellent, you’ve found a property that looks like it’s got everything you want. A real estate agent believes it is solidly built and your DIY professional friend thinks it’s good. Should you really check it out?

If you purchase a house without performing a pre purchase inspection it’s possible to end up owning some pretty costly issues that might be identified, but it could also severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages if the home ended up with significant issues.

A pre-purchase inspection report issued by a qualified Oriental Bay building inspector will show up any defects the property has, as well as any future problems and highlight areas that can be improved. This assures home buyers do not encounter unpleasant unexpected costs and gives you the chance to negotiate a lower price.

The property is inspected and look for any serious flaws that could lead to urgent or future maintenance problems and issues caused by gradual deterioration. We check for structural issues, any signs that the house has a leaky structure and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten due to peeling paint or areas with damp or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

Each of these could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if your house was built or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this pipe, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: This weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the house was built in the early 80s it may have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: It was popular from the 1980s to the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically are smooth or unbroken surface.

Asbestos products: The use of asbestos was widespread from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It could be found in roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If asbestos is found in a property, get specialist advice about the risks it poses, how it could be removed, the time it would require to remove, as well as the cost of removal.
