The Reason Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Vital

You’ve found an apartment that appears like it’s got everything you want. The agent who is selling it says it is solidly constructed and your DIY specialist friend thinks it’s nice. Do you really have to check it out?

If you’re buying a home without doing a pre purchase inspection and you be left with expensive problems that could be identified, but you could severely limit your ability to seek damages in the event that the house has significant issues.

A pre purchase building inspection report prepared by a certified Pipitea building inspector will reveal any issues the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future issues, and identify points that will add value. This will make sure that house buyers don’t have unpleasant shocks and also gives you the chance to negotiate a lower cost.

We inspect the entire building and find any major flaws and any urgent maintenance problems and issues that are caused by the gradual degradation. We are looking for structural issues and any indications that the house has a leaky structure, issues caused by deferred maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten due to peeling paint or areas where there is damp or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Each of these could be costly to solve:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if your home was built or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage that is caused by this type of pipe, if you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard can leak. If your home was built in the 80s, it could have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: In the 1980s until the mid-2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically are smooth or unbroken appearance.

Asbestos products: It was widely used from the around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It is often found in roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If asbestos is found in a property, get specialist guidance on the risk it poses, the best way it could be removed, how long it would be to get rid of, and the cost of removal.
