What Are The Reason Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Important

It’s great, you’ve found an apartment that appears like it ticks all the boxes. The agent who is selling it says it’s well-built and your DIY specialist acquaintance says it’s nice. Do you really have to get it checked?

If you’re buying a home without doing a pre purchase inspection but you could find yourself with some expensive issues that may not have been identified, you may be severely limiting the ability to claim damages in the event that the house resulted in a significant issue.

A pre-purchase inspection report issued by an certified Clive building inspector will show up any defects the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any potential issues and highlight areas that can be improved. This ensures house buyers do not encounter any nasty surprises and gives you the opportunity to negotiate a lower cost.

We inspect the entire building and determine any major defects that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues and problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We are looking for structural issues, any signs that the property is not in good repair or has issues due to delayed maintenance such as weatherboards rotting due to peeling paint or areas with damp or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

The following issues could be costly to solve:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if your house was constructed or rebuilt from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this pipe, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard is known for its leaks. If your house was built in the 80s, it might have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: In the late 1980s through the mid 2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have a smooth, unbroken appearance.

Asbestos products: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It is often found installed on roofs, ceilings underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is found at the property, seek expert advice about the risks it poses, how it might be removed, the length of time it will take to remove, and the price of removal.
