Why Are Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

Congratulations, you’ve discovered a property that looks like it’s got everything you want. The real estate agent reckons it is well-built and your DIY expert friend thinks it’s great. Do you really need to have it examined?

If you are buying a house without conducting a pre purchase inspection, not only could you end up owning some pretty expensive problems that could be identified, but you could severely limit your ability to seek damages in the event that the house ended up with an issue of significant importance.

A pre-purchase building inspection report prepared by a certified Pipitea building inspector will show up any defects the property has, indicate any potential issues and highlight points that will add value. This assures house buyers don’t face unpleasant shocks and gives you an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

The property is inspected and look for any serious flaws as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues and problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We look for structural problems and any indications that the building is in require of repair and issues caused by delayed maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting due to peeling paint or areas with damp or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

The following issues could be costly to solve:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if the house was built or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this pipe, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside siding: This weatherboard is known for its leaks. If your house was built in the early 80s , it might have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: It was popular from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have an unbroken or smooth appearance.

Asbestos products: Used widely from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It could be found placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found at a property, get specialist assistance on the danger it poses, the best way it could be removed, the length of time it will be to get rid of, and the removal cost.
