The Reason Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Crucial

It’s great, you’ve found a property that looks like it has all the right boxes ticked. The agent who is selling it says it’s solidly constructed and your DIY professional friend believes it’s fine. Do you really have to get it checked out?

If you’re purchasing a house without performing a pre inspection prior to purchase and you end up with some costly issues that might be discovered, but you may be severely limiting the ability to claim damages in the event that the home resulted in significant issues.

A pre-purchase building inspection report from a certified Paremata building inspector will identify any problems the property has, as well as any potential issues and highlight areas that can be improved. It ensures house buyers do not face any nasty surprise and gives you the chance to negotiate a lower price.

We check the entire property and determine any major defects, future or urgent maintenance issues , and any problems due to gradual decline. We look for structural problems and any indications that the building is in need of repair and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten due to peeling paint or areas where there is moisture or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Each of these could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if your house was built or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this pipe in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: This weatherboard has been known to leak. If the house was constructed in the early 80s it could have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: Used from the 1980s to the mid-2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually are smooth or unbroken surface.

Asbestos products: Widely used since the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It may be installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found in a property, get specialist advice on what risk it poses, the very best way it can be removed the time it would be to get rid of, and the price of removal.
