The Reason Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Crucial

Excellent, you’ve found one that looks like it’s got everything you want. A real estate agent believes it is solidly constructed and your DIY expert friend says it looks nice. Do you really have to get it checked?

If you’re buying a house without conducting a prior inspection prior to purchase, not only could you end up owning some pretty costly issues that might be identified, but you may severely limit your ability to seek damages if the home resulted in an issue of significant importance.

A pre purchase building inspection report issued by an certified Omahu building inspector will show up any defects the property has, as well as any potential issues and highlight the areas where you are able to add value. This will ensure that house buyers do not encounter unpleasant surprise and offers you the opportunity to negotiate a lower cost.

We examine the entire structure and determine any major defects, future or urgent maintenance problems and issues caused by the gradual loss of quality. We are looking for structural issues or signs that the building is a leaky building and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten due to peeling paint and areas that are damp or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

Each of these could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if the house was constructed or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this piping, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside siding: Weatherside weatherboard is known for its leaks. If your home was built in the 80s, it might have Weatherside.

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

Asbestos building materials: Used widely from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It is often found on ceilings, roofs, in lino under fences. If asbestos is discovered in a property, get specialist advice about the risks it poses, how it might be removed, the length of time it will take to removeit, and the cost of removal.
