Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Important

It’s great, you’ve found an apartment that appears like it meets all the criteria. The agent who is selling it says it is well-built and your DIY expert friend thinks it’s nice. Should you really have it examined?

If you purchase a house without conducting a prior purchase inspection and you find yourself with some expensive problems that could be discovered, but you could severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages if the house was to be stricken with significant problems.

A pre-purchase building inspection report prepared by a qualified Aro Valley building inspector will highlight any flaws the property has, as well as any future issues, and identify points that will add value. This makes sure that house buyers don’t face any nasty unexpected costs and provides you with an opportunity to negotiate lower price.

We inspect the entire building and identify any significant defects that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues , and any problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We look for structural problems 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 with damp or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Any of the following could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if your house was constructed or rebuilt in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this piping, when you know they are there.

Weatherside cladding: This weatherboard has been known to leak. If the house was constructed in the early 80s , it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used in the 1980s until the mid-2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually have a smooth, unbroken finish.

Asbestos products: Widely used since the around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It is often found on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found in the property, seek expert guidance on the risk it presents, how it can be removed, the time it would be to get rid of, and the cost for removal.
