What Are The Reasons Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Important

It’s great, you’ve found a property that looks like it’s got everything you want. The agent who is selling it says it is solidly built and your DIY specialist acquaintance says it’s nice. Should you really check it out?

If you purchase a house without performing a pre inspection prior to purchase but you could end up with some expensive issues that may not have been identified, it could also severely limit the ability to claim damages if the home ended up with significant problems.

A pre purchase building inspection report prepared by an certified Alicetown building inspector will highlight any flaws that the property may have, highlight any future problems , and indicate points that will add value. This makes sure that home buyers do not encounter any nasty surprises and also gives you the chance to negotiate lower price.

We check the entire property and identify any significant defects and any urgent maintenance issues or problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We search for structural issues or signs that the property has a leaky structure or issues that result from deferred maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting due to peeling paint and areas that are damp or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

Any of the following could be costly to solve:

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if the home was constructed or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this pipe, if you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: Weatherside weatherboard can leak. If the household was constructed in the 80s, it may have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: In the 1980s and into the mid-2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually have an unbroken or smooth surface.

Asbestos construction: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It is often found in roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If asbestos is found at a property, get specialist guidance on the risk it presents, how it can be removed the length of time it will be to get rid of, and the cost of removal.
