The Reasons Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Crucial

Excellent, you’ve found a property that looks like it’s got everything you want. The real estate agent says it is solidly constructed and your DIY professional friend thinks it’s fine. Should you really get it checked?

If you purchase a house without conducting a pre inspection prior to purchase it is possible to find yourself with some expensive issues that may not be discovered, but you may severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages if the house has an issue of significant importance.

A pre-purchase inspection report prepared by a qualified Cannons Creek building inspector will highlight any flaws the property has, as well as any future issues, and identify areas to add value. This makes sure that home buyers don’t have unpleasant surprise and provides you with the opportunity to negotiate a lower cost.

We inspect the entire building and determine any major defects, future or urgent maintenance issues , and any problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We check for structural issues and any indications that the house has a leaky structure, issues caused by deferred maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting due to peeling paint or areas where there is moisture or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

The following issues could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if the home was constructed or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this piping, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: Weatherside weatherboard has been known to leak. If the home was constructed in the early 80s it may have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: In the 1980s until the mid-2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have an unbroken or smooth appearance.

Asbestos construction: It was widely used from the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It is often found on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fences. If asbestos is found at the property, seek expert advice about the risks it presents, how it could be removed, how long it will take to remove, and the price of removal.

Does that change require an approval from the building department? A thorough building inspection report can identify what construction work doesn't have a building consent.
