Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Important

Excellent, you’ve found an apartment that appears like it has all the right boxes ticked. The agent who is selling it says it’s solidly built and your DIY expert acquaintance says it’s great. Should you really check it out?

If you purchase a home without conducting a pre purchase inspection it’s possible to end up owning some pretty costly issues that might be discovered, but you could severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages if the house ended up with significant problems.

A pre-purchase building inspection report from a certified Pirimai building inspector will show up any defects the property has, indicate any future issues, and identify points that will add value. It ensures house buyers don’t face unpleasant shocks and provides you with the chance to negotiate a lower cost.

We inspect the entire building and look for any serious flaws and any urgent maintenance problems and issues caused by gradual deterioration. We search for structural issues and any indications that the house is not in good repair or issues that result from deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten because of peeling paint, and areas where there is damp or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Each of these could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if the home was constructed or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this pipe, when you know they are there.

Weatherside siding: This weatherboard is known for its leaks. If your household was built in the early 80s it could be equipped with Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: Used from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually feature a smooth or undulating finish.

Asbestos construction: The use of asbestos was widespread from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It could be found in roofs, ceilings underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is discovered in the property, seek expert advice about the risks it poses, the very best way it can be removed, the length of time it will take to remove, and the removal cost.
