Why Are Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Vital

Excellent, you’ve found a property that looks like it has all the right boxes ticked. The agent who is selling it says it’s solidly built and your DIY expert friend thinks it’s nice. Do you really have to get it checked out?

If you’re purchasing a home without conducting a pre purchase inspection it’s possible to find yourself with some costly problems that could be discovered, but you may be severely limiting your options for claiming damages if the house was to be stricken with a significant issue.

A pre purchase building inspection report by an certified Hataitai building inspector will highlight any flaws the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future problems and highlight the areas where you are able to add value. It assures home buyers do not face unpleasant surprise and also gives you an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

The property is inspected and determine any major defects and any urgent maintenance issues or problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We look for structural problems or signs that the property is not in good repair or issues that result from deferred maintenance such as weatherboards rotting because of peeling paint, and areas where there is damp or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Any of the following could be costly to solve:

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if your household was constructed or rebuilt between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this pipe, if you knew they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: Weatherside weatherboard is known to leak. If your household was built in the early 80s , it could have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: It was popular from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally feature a smooth or undulating finish.

Asbestos products: Used widely from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It may be installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If asbestos is found at the property, seek expert advice about the risks it presents, how it could be removed, the length of time it will take to remove, and the removal cost.
