You’ve found an apartment that appears like it’s got everything you want. The agent who is selling it says it’s sturdy and solid, while your DIY professional friend believes it’s good. Do you really have to have it examined?

If you’re purchasing a house without conducting a prior purchase inspection it’s imaginable to find yourself with some costly issues that might be discovered, but you could severely limit your ability to seek damages if the house was to be stricken with significant issues.

A pre purchase building inspection report issued by an certified Pipitea building inspector will reveal any issues the property has, indicate any potential issues and highlight the areas where you are able to add value. It ensures home buyers don’t face any nasty shocks and provides you with the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

We check the entire property and look for any serious flaws as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues or problems due to gradual decline. We look for structural problems or signs that the building is in need of repair, issues caused by deferred maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting due to peeling paint or areas where there is damp or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Any of the following might be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if your house was constructed or rebuilt around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this pipe, if you knew they were there.

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

Cladding made of Plaster: It was popular from the 1980s to the mid-2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally are smooth or unbroken appearance.

Asbestos products: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It can be found placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fences. If asbestos is found in an address, you should seek out expert advice on what risk it poses, how it might be removed, the time it would take to remove, and the price of removal.
