What Are The Reasons Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Important

Excellent, you’ve found an apartment that appears like it ticks all the boxes. The real estate agent says it’s well-built and your DIY expert friend thinks it’s great. Are you required to have it examined?

If you’re buying a home without conducting a prior inspection prior to purchase but you could end up owning some pretty costly issues that might be discovered, but you could severely limit the ability to claim damages if the house has a significant issue.

A pre-purchase inspection report issued by an certified Onekawa building inspector will show up any defects the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future problems , and indicate areas that can be improved. This will ensure that home buyers don’t have unpleasant shocks and gives you the opportunity to negotiate a lower cost.

We inspect the entire building and look for any serious flaws, future or urgent maintenance problems and issues caused by the gradual loss of quality. We search for structural issues, any signs that the property has a leaky structure and issues caused by delayed maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten due to peeling paint and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

Any of the following might be costly to solve:

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

Weatherside cladding: This weatherboard can leak. If your house was built in the early 80s , it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s A lot of "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have an unbroken or smooth surface.

Asbestos building materials: It was widely used from the around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It could be found placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fences. If asbestos is discovered in the property, seek expert advice about the risks it poses, how it can be removed, how long it will be to get rid of, and the cost for removal.
