Why Are Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Important

You’ve found an apartment that appears like it ticks all the boxes. The agent who is selling it says it’s well-built and your DIY specialist friend believes it’s fine. Do you really have to get it checked out?

If you are buying a house without conducting a prior purchase inspection it’s possible to find yourself with some expensive problems that could have been discovered, but it could also severely limit the ability to claim damages in the event that the house resulted in an issue of significant importance.

A pre purchase inspection report issued by a qualified Alicetown building inspector will highlight any flaws the property has, indicate any future problems and highlight areas to add value. This will ensure that house buyers don’t face unpleasant unexpected costs and provides you with an opportunity to negotiate lower price.

We examine the entire structure and find any major flaws as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues or problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We check for structural issues, any signs that the house is not in good repair or has issues due to delayed maintenance such as weatherboards rotting due to peeling paint or areas where there is damp or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

Each of these could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if the house 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 piping, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: Weatherside weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the house was built in the early 80s it could have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: In the 1980s until the mid-2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have an unbroken or smooth finish.

Asbestos construction: Widely used since the the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It can be found in roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If asbestos is found at the location, seek professional guidance on the risk it presents, how it can be removed, how long it would take to removeit, and the cost of removal.
