What Are The Reasons Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Important

You’ve found an apartment that appears like it’s got everything you want. The agent who is selling it says it’s solidly constructed and your DIY expert friend believes it’s good. Should you really check it out?

If you purchase a house without performing a pre inspection prior to purchase and you end up owning some pretty costly problems that could have been identified, you may be severely limiting your ability to seek damages in the event that the home ended up with significant problems.

A pre purchase building inspection report issued by a qualified Wadestown building inspector will highlight any flaws the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future problems , and indicate points that will add value. It makes sure that house buyers do not face any nasty surprises and also gives you the chance to negotiate a lower cost.

We check the entire property and find any major flaws that could lead to urgent or future maintenance problems and issues caused by the gradual loss of quality. We are looking for structural issues, any signs that the building is a leaky building or issues that result from deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten because of peeling paint and areas that are damp or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

The following issues could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if the house was constructed or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this piping, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: Weatherside weatherboard is known to leak. If your home was built in the early 80s , it might have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: In the 1980s and into the mid-2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have an unbroken or smooth surface.

Asbestos products: It was widely used from the the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It could be found in roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If asbestos is discovered in the location, seek professional advice on what risk it presents, how it could be removed, the length of time it will take to removeit, and the removal cost.
