Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Vital

It’s great, you’ve found one that looks like it has all the right boxes ticked. The real estate agent says it is sturdy and solid, while your DIY professional acquaintance says it’s fine. Do you really have to get it checked out?

If you purchase a house without performing a pre purchase inspection it is possible to end up with some expensive problems that could be discovered, but it could also severely limit your options for claiming damages in the event that the home resulted in significant problems.

A pre-purchase inspection report issued by an qualified Pirimai building inspector will identify any problems the property has, indicate any future problems and highlight areas to add value. It will ensure that home buyers don’t have any nasty unexpected costs and also gives you the opportunity to negotiate a lower cost.

We check the entire property and look for any serious flaws as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues or problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We check for structural issues or any indication that the building is in need of repair or has issues due to delayed maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting because of peeling paint, and areas where there is damp or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Any of the following could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if the home was built or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this piping, if you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: Weatherside weatherboard has been known to leak. If your home was constructed in the 80s, it could be equipped with Weatherside.

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

Asbestos products: Widely used since the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It may be in roofs, ceilings underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is found at the location, seek professional advice about the risks it poses, how it can be removed, the time it would require to remove, as well as the cost of removal.
