The Reason Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

It’s great, you’ve found the perfect property, and it appears that it has all the right boxes ticked. The agent who is selling it says it is sturdy and solid, while your DIY specialist friend thinks it’s great. Do you really need to get it checked out?

If you purchase a home without performing a pre purchase inspection it’s imaginable to be left with costly issues that might be identified, but you may severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages if the home ended up with an issue of significant importance.

A pre-purchase inspection report issued by a certified Karamu building inspector will reveal any issues the property has, as well as any potential issues and highlight areas to add value. It assures home buyers don’t have unpleasant unexpected costs and gives you the opportunity to negotiate a lower cost.

We examine the entire structure and find any major flaws, future or urgent maintenance issues and problems caused by gradual deterioration. We look for structural problems or signs that the building has a leaky structure or issues that result from deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten due to peeling paint or areas where there is moisture or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

Each of these could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if your house 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 when you know they are there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: Weatherside weatherboard is known to leak. If your home was constructed in the early 80s , it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: In the 1980s to the mid-2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have an unbroken or smooth finish.

Asbestos construction: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It could be found in roofs, ceilings underneath lino, or fences. If you find asbestos in the location, seek professional guidance on the risk it poses, the best way it can be removed, the length of time it will take to removeit, and the price of removal.
