What Are The Reason Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Crucial

Congratulations, you’ve discovered one that looks like it ticks all the boxes. The real estate agent says it is solidly constructed and your DIY specialist friend believes it’s great. Are you required to get it checked out?

If you’re buying a house without performing a pre purchase inspection it’s possible to end up with some expensive issues that may not have been discovered, but you may be severely limiting the possibility of pursuing damages in the event that the house has a significant issue.

A pre-purchase inspection report by an certified Wadestown building inspector will show up any defects that the property may have, highlight any potential issues and highlight points that will add value. This makes sure that house buyers do not face any nasty unexpected costs and provides you with the chance to negotiate lower price.

We check the entire property and look for any serious flaws and any urgent maintenance issues and problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We check for structural issues or any indication that the building has a leaky structure, issues caused by deferred maintenance such as weatherboards rotting due to peeling paint or areas that are damp or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

Each of these could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if the home was built or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this pipe, when you know they are there.

Weatherside siding: Weatherside weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the household was built in the 1980s, it might have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: Used in the 1980s to the mid-2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have an unbroken or smooth surface.

Asbestos building materials: The use of asbestos was widespread from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It can be found in roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If asbestos is discovered in the property, seek expert guidance on the risk it poses, the very best way it can be removed the length of time it will take to remove, and the price of removal.
