Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Important

Congratulations, you’ve discovered an apartment that appears like it meets all the criteria. The real estate agent says it is solidly constructed and your DIY professional acquaintance says it’s nice. Are you required to get it checked?

If you are buying a home without performing a pre purchase inspection and you end up owning some pretty costly issues that might be discovered, but you could severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages if the house resulted in significant issues.

A pre-purchase building inspection report issued by an certified Island Bay building inspector will identify any problems the property has, indicate any future problems and highlight points that will add value. It makes sure that home buyers do not face any nasty surprises and gives you the opportunity to negotiate a lower cost.

We examine the entire structure and identify any significant defects, future or urgent maintenance issues , and any problems due to gradual decline. We are looking for structural issues or any indication that the building is in need of repair or has issues due to delayed maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting due to peeling paint or areas where there is damp or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

Any of the following could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if the household was built 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 piping, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside siding: Weatherside weatherboard can leak. If the house was built in the 1980s, it could be equipped with Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: In the late 1980s through the mid 2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically are smooth or unbroken surface.

Asbestos construction: Widely used since the the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It is often found in roofs, ceilings underneath lino, or fences. If you find asbestos in a property, get specialist advice about the risks it poses, how it might be removed, how long it would be to get rid of, and the removal cost.
