Why Are Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Vital

It’s great, you’ve found a property that looks like it meets all the criteria. The real estate agent says it’s solidly built and your DIY specialist friend believes it’s good. Are you required to get it checked out?

If you are buying a house without doing a pre purchase inspection but you could end up owning some pretty costly problems that could be identified, but you may be severely limiting the possibility of pursuing damages if the home was to be stricken with a significant issue.

A pre-purchase building inspection report prepared by a qualified Karamu building inspector will identify any problems the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future issues, and identify areas that can be improved. It will ensure that house buyers don’t have unpleasant surprise and also gives you an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

The property is inspected and look for any serious flaws that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues and problems due to gradual decline. We are looking for structural issues and any indications that the building is a leaky building, issues caused by deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten because of peeling paint and areas where there is damp or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

Any of the following could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if the household was constructed or rebuilt in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies will not cover any damage that is caused by this type of pipe, when you know they are there.

Weatherside siding: This weatherboard can leak. If the household was built in the early 80s it could be equipped with Weatherside.

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

Asbestos products: It was widely used from the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It can be found in roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If asbestos is discovered in a property, get specialist assistance on the danger it poses, the best way it can be removed, how long it will take to remove, and the removal cost.
