Why Are Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Important

It’s great, you’ve found an apartment that appears like it has all the right boxes ticked. A real estate agent believes it is well-built and your DIY professional friend believes it’s nice. Should you really get it checked out?

If you are buying a house without conducting a prior purchase inspection, not only could you be left with costly problems that could have been discovered, but you may severely limit the ability to claim damages in the event that the house ended up with an issue of significant importance.

A pre purchase building inspection report prepared by an certified Poraiti building inspector will show up any defects that the property may have, highlight any future problems , and indicate areas that can be improved. This makes sure that house buyers do not face unpleasant shocks and provides you with the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

We inspect the entire building and identify any significant defects and any urgent maintenance problems and issues that are caused by the gradual degradation. We check for structural issues or signs that the property has a leaky structure, issues caused by deferred maintenance such as weatherboards rotting due to peeling paint and areas where there is damp or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

The following issues could be costly to solve:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if your home was constructed or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They have been 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 to leak. If your home was built in the 80s, it may have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: It was popular from the 1980s to the mid-2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically are smooth or unbroken appearance.

Asbestos products: The use of asbestos was widespread from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It may be installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If you find asbestos in the property, seek expert guidance on the risk it poses, how it could be removed, how long it will be to get rid of, and the price of removal.
