The Reasons Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

You’ve found a property that looks like it’s got everything you want. The agent who is selling it says it is solidly constructed and your DIY professional friend says it looks fine. Are you required to get it checked out?

If you are buying a house without doing a pre purchase inspection it is imaginable to be left with costly problems that could have been identified, you may severely limit your ability to seek damages in the event that the home ended up with an issue of significant importance.

A pre purchase building inspection report issued by an certified Pipitea building inspector will identify any problems that the property may have, highlight any future problems , and indicate points that will add value. It assures house buyers do not encounter any nasty shocks and gives you the chance to negotiate lower cost.

The property is inspected and identify any significant defects, future or urgent maintenance problems and issues due to gradual decline. We look for structural problems, any signs that the house is a leaky building, issues caused by deferred maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting due to peeling paint or areas where there is moisture or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Any of the following might be costly to deal with:

Black plastic piping: You should look 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 are unlikely to cover damages that is caused by this type of pipe, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside siding: Weatherside weatherboard is known for its leaks. If your household was constructed in the 80s, it may have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: Used from the 1980s until the mid-2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually have a smooth, unbroken finish.

Asbestos products: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It could be found placed on roofs, ceilings, in lino under fences. If you find asbestos in the property, seek expert guidance on the risk it poses, how it might be removed, how long it will take to remove, and the cost of removal.
