Why Are Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Important

You’ve found a property that looks like it’s got everything you want. The real estate agent reckons it’s sturdy and solid, while your DIY specialist friend thinks it’s fine. Are you required to get it checked out?

If you’re purchasing a house without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase it’s possible to end up with some expensive issues that may not be discovered, but you may be severely limiting your ability to seek damages in the event that the house resulted in significant problems.

A pre-purchase inspection report by an qualified Karamu building inspector will show up any defects the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any potential issues and highlight points that will add value. It ensures home buyers don’t have any nasty surprises and offers you the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

We inspect the entire building and determine any major defects and any urgent maintenance issues or problems caused by gradual deterioration. We check for structural issues or signs that the property has a leaky structure or issues that result from deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten due to peeling paint or areas that are damp or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Each of these could be costly to solve:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if the household was constructed or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this piping, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: Weatherside weatherboard can leak. If your household was built in the 80s, it might have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: It was popular from the 1980s until the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have a smooth, unbroken finish.

Asbestos products: Widely used since the around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It may be installed on roofs, ceilings underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is found in an address, you should seek out expert guidance on the risk it poses, how it can be removed, the time it would take to removeit, and the cost of removal.
