Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Important

You’ve found a property that looks like it’s got everything you want. The real estate agent says it’s well-built and your DIY specialist friend says it looks good. Are you required to have it examined?

If you’re buying a home without conducting a prior inspection prior to purchase but you could end up owning some pretty expensive issues that may not have been identified, it could also severely limit your options for claiming damages if the home resulted in an issue of significant importance.

A pre-purchase inspection report from a certified Wadestown building inspector will reveal any issues the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any potential issues and highlight the areas where you are able to add value. It makes sure that home buyers don’t face unpleasant shocks and also gives you the chance to negotiate lower price.

We examine the entire structure and find any major flaws and any urgent maintenance issues , and any problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We are looking for structural issues or any indication that the building is a leaky building or has issues due to delayed maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten because of peeling paint, and areas that are damp or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

Any of the following might cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if your house was constructed or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this piping, if you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: Weatherside weatherboard can leak. If the home was constructed in the 80s, it may have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: It was popular from the 1980s to the mid-2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have a smooth, unbroken appearance.

Asbestos products: It was widely used from the the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It can be found placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fences. If you find asbestos in the property, seek expert advice on what risk it poses, how it might be removed, the length of time it will be to get rid of, and the removal cost.
