Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Crucial

Excellent, you’ve found the perfect property, and it appears that it ticks all the boxes. The agent who is selling it says it is sturdy and solid, while 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 prior inspection prior to purchase, not only could you be left with costly problems that could have been discovered, but you may severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages in the event that the house was to be stricken with significant problems.

A pre purchase building inspection report from an certified Aro Valley building inspector will show up any defects the property has, indicate any future issues, and identify areas that can be improved. This assures house buyers don’t face unpleasant surprise and provides you with an opportunity to negotiate lower price.

We inspect the entire building and find any major flaws that could lead to urgent or future maintenance problems and issues caused by gradual deterioration. We look for structural problems or any indication that the property is in need of repair or has issues due to delayed maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten because of peeling paint, and areas that are damp or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

Each of these could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if your household was built or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this pipe if you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard can leak. If your household was constructed in the early 80s it may have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: Used in the 1980s until the mid-2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally feature a smooth or undulating finish.

Asbestos products: Used widely from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It could be found on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fences. If asbestos is found at the property, seek expert guidance on the risk it poses, the best way it can be removed, the length of time it will be to get rid of, and the cost for removal.
