Why Are Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Crucial

Congratulations, you’ve discovered an apartment that appears like it meets all the criteria. A real estate agent believes it is solidly constructed and your DIY specialist friend believes it’s great. Should you really get it checked out?

If you’re buying a house without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase, not only could you end up with some expensive issues that may not be identified, but you may be severely limiting the ability to claim damages if the home has a significant issue.

A pre purchase building inspection report by a qualified Pipitea building inspector will highlight any flaws that the property may have, highlight any potential issues and highlight areas that can be improved. It ensures house buyers do not face any nasty unexpected costs and gives you an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

We inspect the entire building and identify any significant defects as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues or problems due to gradual decline. We look for structural problems, any signs that the property is not in good repair or has issues due to delayed maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten because of peeling paint and areas where there is damp or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

Any of the following might be costly to deal with:

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if your household was built or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this piping, when you know they are there.

Weatherside siding: The weatherboard is known to leak. If the household was constructed in the 1980s, it may have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: In the 1980s and into the mid-2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally feature a smooth or undulating surface.

Asbestos products: Widely used since the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It can be found on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fencing. If asbestos is discovered in an address, you should seek out expert advice about the risks it poses, how it could be removed, the time it would be to get rid of, and the removal cost.
