The Reason Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Crucial

It’s great, you’ve found a property that looks like it meets all the criteria. The real estate agent reckons it’s solidly built and your DIY specialist friend thinks it’s nice. Do you really have to get it checked?

If you’re purchasing a home without conducting a pre purchase inspection and you end up owning some pretty costly issues that might have been discovered, but it could also severely limit the ability to claim damages if the house ended up with an issue of significant importance.

A pre purchase inspection report from a certified Aro Valley building inspector will show up any defects the property has, indicate any future problems and highlight areas to add value. This assures home buyers do not encounter any nasty shocks and also gives you the chance to negotiate lower price.

We inspect the entire building and look for any serious flaws as well as any future or urgent maintenance problems and issues caused by gradual deterioration. We check for structural issues, any signs that the property has a leaky structure or has issues due to delayed maintenance such as weatherboards rotting because of peeling paint and areas that are damp or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Each of these could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if your house was built or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages that is caused by this type of pipe, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: This weatherboard is known for its leaks. If your household was constructed in the 80s, it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: In the 1980s to the mid-2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally are smooth or unbroken appearance.

Asbestos construction: It was widely used from the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It is often found placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found at the location, seek professional assistance on the danger it poses, how it can be removed, how long it would take to remove, and the cost for removal.
