The Reasons Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Crucial

You’ve found one that looks like it ticks all the boxes. The real estate agent says it is solidly constructed and your DIY specialist friend says it looks fine. Do you really need to get it checked?

If you’re purchasing a house without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase, not only could you be left with costly problems that could be identified, but you may be severely limiting the ability to claim damages in the event that the house resulted in an issue of significant importance.

A pre purchase building inspection report issued by an qualified Newlands building inspector will highlight any flaws the property has, as well as any potential issues and highlight areas to add value. It makes sure that home buyers do not face unpleasant shocks and provides you with an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

The property is inspected and identify any significant defects and any urgent maintenance issues and problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We check for structural issues or any indication that the house is a leaky building or has issues due to delayed maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting due to peeling paint or areas where there is damp or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

Each of these could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if the household was constructed or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this pipe in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: The weatherboard can leak. If the household was constructed in the 80s, it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used in the late 1980s through the mid 2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have a smooth, unbroken surface.

Asbestos products: It was widely used from the the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It may be on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fencing. If you find asbestos in the location, seek professional guidance on the risk it poses, the very best way it can be removed, the length of time it will be to get rid of, and the removal cost.
