Why Are Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Crucial

Excellent, you’ve found one that looks like it ticks all the boxes. A real estate agent believes it is sturdy and solid, while your DIY specialist friend believes it’s great. Are you required to get it checked out?

If you’re buying a house without performing a pre inspection prior to purchase it’s imaginable to end up owning some pretty costly problems that could have been discovered, but you may be severely limiting your ability to seek damages if the home ended up with significant issues.

A pre-purchase building inspection report by an certified Aro Valley building inspector will identify any problems the property has, indicate any future issues, and identify areas that can be improved. This assures home buyers don’t have any nasty surprise and gives you the opportunity to negotiate a lower cost.

We examine the entire structure and determine any major defects and any urgent maintenance issues and problems caused by gradual deterioration. We are looking for structural issues or any indication that the house is a leaky building and issues caused by delayed maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting because of peeling paint and areas where there is moisture or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Each of these could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if the household was constructed or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this piping, when you know they are there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: This weatherboard is known to leak. If the home was built in the early 80s , it might have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: Used in the late 1980s through the mid 2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually are smooth or unbroken appearance.

Asbestos products: Widely used since the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It is often found placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found in the location, seek professional guidance on the risk it poses, the best way it can be removed how long it would be to get rid of, and the cost of removal.
