Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Vital

You’ve found a property that looks like it has all the right boxes ticked. The agent who is selling it says it is solidly constructed and your DIY expert friend thinks it’s great. Are you required to check it out?

If you purchase a house without conducting a prior purchase inspection and you end up owning some pretty costly problems that could be identified, but you may severely limit your options for claiming damages in the event that the home resulted in significant issues.

A pre purchase inspection report prepared by a qualified Raupunga building inspector will identify any problems the property has, indicate any future problems , and indicate areas that can be improved. This assures home buyers do not encounter any nasty surprise and gives you the chance to negotiate lower cost.

We inspect the entire building and determine any major defects, future or urgent maintenance problems and issues caused by gradual deterioration. We search for structural issues, any signs that the house has a leaky structure or has issues due to delayed maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten due to peeling paint or areas where there is damp or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Any of the following could be costly to solve:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if the household was constructed or rebuilt between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this pipe, when you know they are there.

Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the home was constructed in the 1980s, it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: It was popular from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have an unbroken or smooth appearance.

Asbestos construction: Widely used since the the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It may be on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fences. If asbestos is found at a property, get specialist assistance on the danger it poses, how it can be removed how long it will take to remove, and the removal cost.
