Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Crucial

Excellent, you’ve found an apartment that appears like it meets all the criteria. The real estate agent reckons it is sturdy and solid, while your DIY specialist friend says it looks good. Do you really need to have it examined?

If you’re buying a home without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase, not only could you be left with expensive problems that could have been identified, you may severely limit your options for claiming damages in the event that the home resulted in an issue of significant importance.

A pre purchase building inspection report by an certified Pipitea building inspector will highlight any flaws the property has, indicate any future issues, and identify areas that can be improved. It will make sure that house buyers do not encounter any nasty surprise and offers you the chance to negotiate lower cost.

The property is inspected and find any major flaws that could lead to urgent or future maintenance problems and issues caused by gradual deterioration. We search for structural issues or any indication that the house is a leaky building and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards rotting due to peeling paint or areas that are damp or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

The following issues could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if the home was constructed or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this pipe when you know they are there.

Weatherside cladding: Weatherside weatherboard has been known to leak. If your home was constructed in the early 80s , it could have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used from the 1980s until the mid-2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have an unbroken or smooth finish.

Asbestos building materials: Widely used since the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It may be on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found in an address, you should seek out expert guidance on the risk it poses, how it could be removed, how long it would take to removeit, and the cost of removal.
