The Reasons Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Important

It’s great, you’ve found an apartment that appears like it ticks all the boxes. A real estate agent believes it’s solidly constructed and your DIY specialist friend believes it’s great. Do you really have to get it checked out?

If you’re purchasing a home without performing a pre purchase inspection but you could find yourself with some expensive problems that could have been discovered, but you may be severely limiting the ability to claim damages if the home has significant issues.

A pre-purchase inspection report from an certified Pirimai building inspector will reveal any issues the property has, as well as any future issues, and identify points that will add value. This assures home buyers don’t have any nasty shocks and offers you an opportunity to negotiate lower price.

We check the entire property and identify any significant defects, future or urgent maintenance issues or problems caused by gradual deterioration. We search for structural issues or signs that the house has a leaky structure and issues caused by delayed maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting because of peeling paint, and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

The following issues could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if your household was constructed or rebuilt in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this piping, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the house was built in the 1980s, it may have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used in the late 1980s through the mid 2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually are smooth or unbroken finish.

Asbestos building materials: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It can be found installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If asbestos is discovered in the location, seek professional guidance on the risk it poses, how it could be removed, how long it will take to removeit, and the removal cost.
