The Reason Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Important

Congratulations, you’ve discovered a property that looks like it ticks all the boxes. The real estate agent reckons it is solidly built and your DIY professional friend thinks it’s fine. Do you really have to get it checked out?

If you’re purchasing a house without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase it’s possible to end up owning some pretty expensive problems that could be discovered, but you could severely limit your ability to seek damages in the event that the home ended up with significant problems.

A pre-purchase inspection report by a certified Taita building inspector will reveal any issues that the property may have, highlight any future problems and highlight points that will add value. It ensures house buyers don’t have any nasty unexpected costs and also gives you the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

We examine the entire structure and determine any major defects, future or urgent maintenance issues or problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We look for structural problems or any indication that the property is in need of repair or issues that result from deferred maintenance such as weatherboards rotting due to peeling paint and areas where there is moisture or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

The following issues could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if your home was constructed or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages that is caused by this type of pipe, if you knew they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: This weatherboard has been known to leak. If the household was constructed in the 1980s, it might have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used in the 1980s and into the mid-2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically feature a smooth or undulating appearance.

Asbestos building materials: It was widely used from the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It may be in roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If asbestos is discovered in the location, seek professional advice about the risks it poses, how it could be removed, the time it would take to remove, and the price of removal.
