What Are The Reason Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

You’ve found a property that looks like it ticks all the boxes. A real estate agent believes it is well-built and your DIY specialist friend says it looks fine. Do you really have to get it checked out?

If you are buying a home without conducting a pre inspection prior to purchase, not only could you be left with expensive problems that could have been discovered, but it could also severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages if the home was to be stricken with an issue of significant importance.

A pre-purchase building inspection report prepared by a certified Hataitai building inspector will show up any defects the property has, as well as any future problems and highlight areas to add value. It assures house buyers do not encounter any nasty surprises and provides you with the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

The property is inspected and find any major flaws and any urgent maintenance issues , and any problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We are looking for structural issues or any indication that the house is not in good repair or issues that result from deferred maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting due to peeling paint or areas where there is damp or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

Any of the following might cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if the household was constructed or rebuilt around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages that is caused by this type of pipe, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside siding: Weatherside weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the home was built in the early 80s it could have 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 surface.

Asbestos construction: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It could be found in roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If asbestos is discovered in the property, seek expert advice about the risks it poses, how it could be removed, the length of time it will require to remove, as well as the price of removal.
