Why Are Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Important

If you are buying a home without performing a pre inspection prior to purchase, not only could you end up with some costly problems that could be discovered, but you could severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages in the event that the house resulted in a significant issue.

A pre-purchase building inspection report by a qualified Oriental Bay building inspector will reveal any issues that the property may have, highlight any future problems and highlight areas to add value. It makes sure that home buyers don’t have any nasty unexpected costs and also gives you the chance to negotiate lower cost.

We check the entire property and look for any serious flaws that could lead to urgent or future maintenance problems and issues due to gradual decline. We check for structural issues or any indication that the house is a leaky building, issues caused by deferred maintenance such as weatherboards rotting due to peeling paint or areas where there is damp or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

Each of these could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if the home was constructed or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this pipe even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside cladding: This weatherboard is known for its leaks. If your house was built in the 1980s, it might have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have an unbroken or smooth appearance.

Asbestos building materials: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It may be placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fencing. If you find asbestos in an address, you should seek out expert advice on what risk it poses, how it could be removed, the time it would take to remove, and the price of removal.
