The Reasons Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Vital

You’ve found an apartment that appears like it’s got everything you want. The real estate agent says it’s solidly built and your DIY specialist friend thinks it’s good. Do you really have to check it out?

If you’re buying a home without conducting a prior purchase inspection but you could be left with costly issues that might have been discovered, but it could also severely limit the ability to claim damages if the house ended up with an issue of significant importance.

A pre-purchase building inspection report from an qualified Pipitea building inspector will identify any problems that the property may have, highlight any potential issues and highlight areas to add value. This assures home buyers don’t have unpleasant shocks and also gives you the opportunity to negotiate a lower cost.

We inspect the entire building and determine any major defects as well as any future or urgent maintenance problems and issues caused by gradual deterioration. We look for structural problems or any indication that the property is not in good repair, issues caused by deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten due to peeling paint or areas where there is moisture or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

Each of these could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if the house was constructed or rebuilt between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage that is caused by this type of pipe, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the home was constructed in the early 80s it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used from the 1980s until the mid-2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have a smooth, unbroken appearance.

Asbestos products: The use of asbestos was widespread from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It is often found installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found at an address, you should seek out expert advice on what risk it presents, how it might be removed, the length of time it will take to removeit, and the removal cost.
