The Reason Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

You’ve found the perfect property, and it appears that it’s got everything you want. The real estate agent reckons it’s well-built and your DIY specialist friend believes it’s good. Are you required to have it examined?

If you are buying a home without performing a pre inspection prior to purchase but you could end up owning some pretty costly problems that could have been identified, you could severely limit your ability to seek damages in the event that the house has a significant issue.

A pre purchase building inspection report issued by a qualified Alicetown building inspector will highlight any flaws the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future problems and highlight points that will add value. This will ensure that home buyers do not face unpleasant unexpected costs and offers you the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

We examine the entire structure and find any major flaws, future or urgent maintenance issues , and any problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We search for structural issues, any signs that the building is a leaky building and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten because of peeling paint, and areas with damp or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

Any of the following might be costly to deal with:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if your home was built or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages that is caused by this type of pipe, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside cladding: This weatherboard can leak. If your home was built in the 80s, it may have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: It was popular from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically feature a smooth or undulating surface.

Asbestos construction: Used widely from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It could be found in roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If you find asbestos in the location, seek professional advice about the risks it presents, how it could be removed, the time it would require to remove, as well as the cost for removal.
