Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Crucial

Excellent, you’ve found one that looks like it ticks all the boxes. The agent who is selling it says it is solidly constructed and your DIY specialist friend thinks it’s nice. Do you really have to get it checked?

If you purchase a home without performing a pre purchase inspection and you be left with expensive problems that could be identified, but it could also severely limit the ability to claim damages if the home was to be stricken with significant problems.

A pre-purchase building inspection report prepared by a qualified Raureka building inspector will show up any defects that the property may have, highlight any future issues, and identify areas to add value. It makes sure that home buyers don’t have any nasty unexpected costs and also gives you the chance to negotiate a lower price.

We check the entire property and find any major flaws that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues and problems due to gradual decline. We search for structural issues and any indications that the property has a leaky structure or issues that result from deferred maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting because of peeling paint and areas with damp or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Any of the following might be costly to deal with:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if the house was built or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this pipe in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: This weatherboard is known for its leaks. If your household was built in the 80s, it may have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: In the 1980s until the mid-2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically are smooth or unbroken finish.

Asbestos building materials: Used widely from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It is often found on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found in the property, seek expert guidance on the risk it presents, how it might be removed, the length of time it will require to remove, as well as the price of removal.
