The Reasons Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

It’s great, you’ve found one that looks like it’s got everything you want. The agent who is selling it says it’s solidly constructed and your DIY specialist acquaintance says it’s fine. Do you really have to get it checked out?

If you’re buying a house without conducting a pre purchase inspection but you could be left with expensive issues that may not have been discovered, but it could also severely limit your ability to seek damages if the home resulted in significant issues.

A pre-purchase building inspection report by an certified Karamu building inspector will show up any defects the property has, as well as any potential issues and highlight areas to add value. It makes sure that house buyers do not face any nasty unexpected costs and provides you with the opportunity to negotiate a lower cost.

We check the entire property and look for any serious flaws, future or urgent maintenance issues and problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We look for structural problems or any indication that the property has a leaky structure or has issues due to delayed maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten due to peeling paint or areas where there is moisture or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Any of the following might cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if the home was constructed or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this pipe if you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: This weatherboard has been known to leak. If your household was built in the early 80s it could have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: Used in the late 1980s through the mid 2000s A lot of "leaky homes" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually are smooth or unbroken appearance.

Asbestos products: It was widely used from the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It could be found installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If asbestos is found in the location, seek professional guidance on the risk it poses, the very best way it can be removed how long it will be to get rid of, and the price of removal.
