The Reasons Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Important

Excellent, you’ve found a property that looks like it’s got everything you want. The real estate agent says it’s sturdy and solid, while your DIY specialist acquaintance says it’s great. Are you required to get it checked?

If you’re purchasing a home without performing a pre inspection prior to purchase but you could end up owning some pretty costly problems that could have been identified, you may severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages if the house has a significant issue.

A pre-purchase inspection report issued by a qualified Taradale building inspector will show up any defects the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future problems and highlight areas to add value. It makes sure that house buyers do not face any nasty surprises and gives you the chance to negotiate lower price.

We examine the entire structure and look for any serious flaws and any urgent maintenance issues and problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We check for structural issues or signs that the house is a leaky building or issues that result from deferred maintenance such as weatherboards rotting due to peeling paint and areas with damp or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

Any of the following could be costly to solve:

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if your home was built or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this piping, when you know they are there.

Weatherside cladding: Weatherside weatherboard has been known to leak. If the home was built in the 1980s, it could be equipped with Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: Used in the 1980s until the mid-2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally are smooth or unbroken appearance.

Asbestos building materials: The use of asbestos was widespread from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It may be on ceilings, roofs, underneath lino, or fences. If you find asbestos in the property, seek expert advice on what risk it poses, the best way it can be removed how long it will be to get rid of, and the price of removal.
