Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Important

It’s great, you’ve found one that looks like it’s got everything you want. A real estate agent believes it’s sturdy and solid, while your DIY professional friend believes it’s nice. Are you required to get it checked out?

If you are buying a home without doing a pre purchase inspection it is imaginable to end up with some costly issues that might be identified, but you may be severely limiting the possibility of pursuing damages in the event that the house has significant problems.

A pre purchase inspection report prepared by a qualified Raureka building inspector will highlight any flaws the property has, indicate any future problems and highlight areas to add value. This makes sure that home buyers do not encounter unpleasant surprise and offers you an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

The property is inspected and determine any major defects that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues or problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We search for structural issues or any indication that the property has a leaky structure, issues caused by deferred maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten due to peeling paint or areas that are damp or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

The following issues could be expensive to sort out:

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

Weatherside cladding: This weatherboard can leak. If the household was built in the early 80s , it could have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: It was popular from the 1980s to the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have an unbroken or smooth appearance.

Asbestos building materials: Widely used since the the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It could be found on ceilings, roofs, in lino under fences. If asbestos is found in a property, get specialist assistance on the danger it presents, how it might be removed, the length of time it will take to remove, and the cost for removal.
