Why Are Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Important

Congratulations, you’ve discovered a property that looks like it meets all the criteria. The real estate agent says it is solidly built and your DIY specialist acquaintance says it’s fine. Do you really have to have it examined?

If you are buying a home without conducting a prior purchase inspection it is imaginable to end up with some expensive problems that could be identified, but you may severely limit your ability to seek damages in the event that the house has an issue of significant importance.

A pre-purchase inspection report issued by an certified Titahi Bay building inspector will reveal any issues that the property may have, highlight any future problems , and indicate points that will add value. This makes sure that home buyers do not face any nasty surprises and provides you with an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

We check the entire property and identify any significant defects as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues , and any problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We look for structural problems or signs that the house is not in good repair and issues caused by delayed maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten because of peeling paint, and areas with damp or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

The following issues could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if the home was constructed or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage that is caused by this type of pipe, when you know they are there.

Weatherside cladding: Weatherside weatherboard is known to leak. If the home was built in the early 80s it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used from the 1980s to the mid-2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually feature a smooth or undulating appearance.

Asbestos construction: Used widely from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It can be found in roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If asbestos is found in a property, get specialist guidance on the risk it presents, how it can be removed, how long it will require to remove, as well as the price of removal.
