What Are The Reasons Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Important

You’ve found one that looks like it has all the right boxes ticked. The real estate agent reckons it is sturdy and solid, while your DIY expert friend believes it’s great. Do you really need to get it checked?

If you’re purchasing a house without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase and you end up owning some pretty expensive issues that may not be discovered, but you may be severely limiting your options for claiming damages in the event that the home was to be stricken with significant problems.

A pre purchase building inspection report prepared by an qualified Onekawa building inspector will highlight any flaws the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future problems and highlight areas that can be improved. This makes sure that home buyers don’t face any nasty unexpected costs and provides you with the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

The property is inspected and determine any major defects that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues and problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We look for structural problems and any indications that the house is in need of repair or issues that result from deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten due to peeling paint or areas where there is moisture or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Any of the following could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if your household was constructed or rebuilt between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this piping, even if you were aware that 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.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used in the 1980s to the mid-2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have an unbroken or smooth surface.

Asbestos construction: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It may be installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If asbestos is discovered in the location, seek professional guidance on the risk it poses, how it can be removed, the length of time it will be to get rid of, and the cost of removal.
