Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Crucial

Congratulations, you’ve discovered one that looks like it’s got everything you want. The agent who is selling it says it is solidly built and your DIY expert acquaintance says it’s fine. Do you really have to get it checked out?

If you are buying a home without conducting a pre purchase inspection and you end up with some costly problems that could be identified, but you could severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages in the event that the home has significant problems.

A pre-purchase inspection report by an qualified Pipitea building inspector will highlight any flaws the property has, indicate any future issues, and identify the areas where you can add value. It will make sure that home buyers do not encounter any nasty surprises and offers you the chance to negotiate lower cost.

We examine the entire structure and identify any significant defects, future or urgent maintenance issues , and any problems caused by gradual deterioration. We are looking for structural issues and any indications that the house is not in good repair, issues caused by deferred maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting because of peeling paint, and areas with damp or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

Each of these could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if the house was constructed or rebuilt around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this piping, when you know they are there.

Weatherside siding: The weatherboard has been known to leak. If the house was constructed in the 1980s, it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: It was popular from the 1980s to the mid-2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically feature a smooth or undulating finish.

Asbestos building materials: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It can be found installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If asbestos is discovered in a property, get specialist advice on what risk it presents, how it could be removed, the length of time it will take to remove, and the price of removal.
