Why Are Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Crucial

Congratulations, you’ve discovered one that looks like it has all the right boxes ticked. The agent who is selling it says it is well-built and your DIY specialist friend believes it’s great. Should you really get it checked?

If you are buying a house without performing a pre purchase inspection it is possible to be left with costly issues that might have been discovered, but you could severely limit the ability to claim damages in the event that the home ended up with a significant issue.

A pre purchase inspection report issued by an certified Taradale building inspector will show up any defects that the property may have, highlight any potential issues and highlight points that will add value. It will make sure that house buyers don’t have unpleasant unexpected costs and gives you the chance to negotiate a lower price.

We examine the entire structure and identify any significant defects, future or urgent maintenance issues , and any problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We look for structural problems or signs that the building has a leaky structure and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten due to peeling paint and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

The following issues could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if your house was constructed or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this pipe if you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: This weatherboard is known to leak. If your home was built in the early 80s , it could have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: Used in the 1980s and into the mid-2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually have a smooth, unbroken surface.

Asbestos construction: Used widely from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It is often found on ceilings, roofs, underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is discovered in an address, you should seek out expert advice about the risks it poses, how it might be removed, how long it would take to removeit, and the cost for removal.
