What Are The Reasons Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Important

Excellent, you’ve found one that looks like it’s got everything you want. The real estate agent reckons it is solidly constructed and your DIY specialist acquaintance says it’s great. Do you really need to have it examined?

If you’re purchasing a house without performing a pre purchase inspection, not only could you be left with costly issues that might be discovered, but you may be severely limiting the possibility of pursuing damages in the event that the home resulted in an issue of significant importance.

A pre-purchase inspection report prepared by a qualified Aro Valley building inspector will reveal any issues the property has, indicate any future problems , and indicate areas that can be improved. This makes sure that house buyers do not encounter unpleasant shocks and gives you the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

We inspect the entire building and identify any significant defects as well as any future or urgent maintenance problems and issues that are caused by the gradual degradation. We look for structural problems or any indication that the property has a leaky structure or issues that result from deferred maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten because of peeling paint, and areas where there is damp or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

Any of the following could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if your house was constructed or rebuilt in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this piping, when you know they are there.

Weatherside siding: This weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the household was built in the 80s, it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: Used from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have an unbroken or smooth finish.

Asbestos products: Used widely from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It can be found installed on roofs, ceilings underneath lino, or fences. If you find asbestos in a property, get specialist advice on what risk it poses, the best way it could be removed, how long it would require to remove, as well as the cost for removal.
