Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Vital

It’s great, you’ve found the perfect property, and it appears that it’s got everything you want. A real estate agent believes it is well-built and your DIY expert friend says it looks fine. Are you required to check it out?

If you are buying a house without conducting a prior inspection prior to purchase and you find yourself with some expensive problems that could have been identified, you could severely limit your ability to seek damages if the home resulted in significant problems.

A pre purchase building inspection report from an certified Onekawa building inspector will show up any defects the property has, indicate any future problems , and indicate areas that can be improved. This ensures home buyers don’t have any nasty surprise and also gives you an opportunity to negotiate lower price.

The property is inspected and determine any major defects, future or urgent maintenance issues and problems due to gradual decline. We search for structural issues or any indication that the building is a leaky building or issues that result from deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten due to peeling paint and areas where there is damp or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

Any of the following might be costly to deal with:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if your home was constructed or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this pipe if you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: Weatherside weatherboard has been known to leak. If the home was constructed in the early 80s it might have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: Used from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s A lot of "leaky homes" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually feature a smooth or undulating finish.

Asbestos construction: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It can be found in roofs, ceilings underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is discovered in the property, seek expert guidance on the risk it presents, how it can be removed how long it will be to get rid of, and the price of removal.
