What Are The Reason Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Important

Excellent, you’ve found one that looks like it meets all the criteria. The real estate agent says it’s well-built and your DIY professional friend thinks it’s good. Do you really have to check it out?

If you are buying a home without conducting a pre purchase inspection it’s imaginable to be left with expensive issues that may not have been discovered, but you may severely limit your ability to seek damages in the event that the home ended up with significant problems.

A pre-purchase building inspection report issued by a qualified Omahu building inspector will highlight any flaws that the property may have, highlight any potential issues and highlight areas to add value. This makes sure that house buyers do not encounter unpleasant unexpected costs and gives you the chance to negotiate lower cost.

The property is inspected and find any major flaws, future or urgent maintenance problems and issues caused by the gradual loss of quality. We search for structural issues or signs that the building has a leaky structure or issues that result from deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten due to peeling paint and areas with damp or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

The following issues could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if the home was built or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages that is caused by this type of pipe, when you know they are there.

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

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

Asbestos products: It was widely used from the the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It is often found installed on roofs, ceilings underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is discovered in the property, seek expert advice on what risk it presents, how it could be removed, the time it would take to remove, and the removal cost.
