Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Important

You’ve found one that looks like it has all the right boxes ticked. The real estate agent says it’s solidly constructed and your DIY professional friend thinks it’s great. Do you really have to check it out?

If you’re purchasing a home without conducting a prior inspection prior to purchase, not only could you find yourself with some expensive issues that may not have been identified, it could also severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages if the house ended up with significant problems.

A pre-purchase inspection report prepared by a certified Aro Valley building inspector will highlight any flaws the property has, as well as any future problems and highlight the areas where you are able to add value. This assures house buyers do not encounter any nasty shocks and provides you with the chance to negotiate a lower cost.

We check the entire property and look for any serious flaws as well as any future or urgent maintenance problems and issues that are caused by the gradual degradation. We check for structural issues and any indications that the property is not in good repair or issues that result from deferred maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting because of peeling paint, and areas where there is damp or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Each of these could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if the house was constructed or rebuilt from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages that is caused by this type of pipe, when you know they are there.

Weatherside siding: The weatherboard is known to leak. If your house was constructed in the 80s, it could have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: In the 1980s to the mid-2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically are smooth or unbroken finish.

Asbestos products: Used widely from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It is often found installed on roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If asbestos is found at a property, get specialist advice on what risk it poses, the very best way it can be removed, how long it would take to remove, and the cost for removal.
