Why Are Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

Congratulations, you’ve discovered one that looks like it has all the right boxes ticked. The agent who is selling it says it’s sturdy and solid, while your DIY specialist friend thinks it’s fine. Do you really have to get it checked?

If you are buying a house without conducting a pre purchase inspection, not only could you end up with some expensive problems that could have been identified, you could severely limit your options for claiming damages in the event that the home was to be stricken with significant issues.

A pre-purchase building inspection report from an qualified Tamatea building inspector will highlight any flaws that the property may have, highlight any future issues, and identify areas to add value. It ensures house buyers don’t have unpleasant surprise and offers you the chance to negotiate a lower cost.

The property is inspected and look for any serious flaws as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues , and any problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We look for structural problems, any signs that the house is not in good repair, issues caused by deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten due to peeling paint and areas that are damp or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

Any of the following might be costly to solve:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if the household was built or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this pipe in the event that you knew they were there.

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

The Plaster monolithic style: In the 1980s to the mid-2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have a smooth, unbroken surface.

Asbestos construction: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It can be found placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fences. If asbestos is discovered in the location, seek professional assistance on the danger it poses, how it might be removed, the time it would require to remove, as well as the cost of removal.
