Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Crucial

You’ve found an apartment that appears like it ticks all the boxes. The agent who is selling it says it is well-built and your DIY professional friend believes it’s good. Are you required to check it out?

If you’re purchasing a home without performing a pre purchase inspection, not only could you end up with some costly problems that could be identified, but you could severely limit the ability to claim damages if the house has significant issues.

A pre purchase building inspection report issued by a certified Pipitea building inspector will highlight any flaws the property has, indicate any future problems , and indicate points that will add value. This makes sure that home buyers don’t have unpleasant shocks and provides you with the chance to negotiate lower cost.

We check the entire property and identify any significant defects as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues and problems caused by gradual deterioration. We are looking for structural issues, any signs that the building is a leaky building and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards rotting due to peeling paint and areas where there is damp or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

Each of these could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if the home was built or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this piping, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard has been known to leak. If your household was built in the early 80s , it may have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: It was popular from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically feature a smooth or undulating appearance.

Asbestos building materials: It was widely used from the around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It is often found on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fences. If asbestos is found at a property, get specialist assistance on the danger it poses, the best way it can be removed the time it would take to remove, and the cost for removal.
