The Reasons Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

Congratulations, you’ve discovered the perfect property, and it appears that it meets all the criteria. The real estate agent reckons it’s solidly built and your DIY specialist friend says it looks good. Do you really have to have it examined?

If you’re buying a home without conducting a pre purchase inspection, not only could you end up with some expensive issues that may not have been discovered, but you may be severely limiting the possibility of pursuing damages if the house resulted in a significant issue.

A pre purchase building inspection report from a certified Taradale building inspector will show up any defects the property has, indicate any future issues, and identify the areas where you can add value. It makes sure that house buyers do not encounter unpleasant surprises and gives you the chance to negotiate a lower cost.

We examine the entire structure and look for any serious flaws and any urgent maintenance issues , and any problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We search for structural issues, any signs that the building is in require of repair or has issues due to delayed maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting due to peeling paint and areas that are damp or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

Each of these could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if the household was constructed or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this piping, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: Weatherside weatherboard is known to leak. If the home was constructed in the 1980s, it could have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used in the 1980s and into the mid-2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually feature a smooth or undulating surface.

Asbestos building materials: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It could be found placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found in a property, get specialist advice on what risk it poses, the very best way it could be removed, the time it would be to get rid of, and the removal cost.
