The Reasons Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Crucial

Congratulations, you’ve discovered one that looks like it’s got everything you want. The real estate agent reckons it’s sturdy and solid, while your DIY professional friend says it looks nice. Do you really need to get it checked?

If you purchase a home without conducting a prior purchase inspection it’s possible to end up owning some pretty costly problems that could have been identified, you could severely limit your options for claiming damages in the event that the house was to be stricken with significant problems.

A pre-purchase inspection report by a qualified Pipitea building inspector will highlight any flaws the property has, as well as any future issues, and identify areas that can be improved. This makes sure that house buyers don’t have unpleasant surprises and provides you with an opportunity to negotiate lower price.

The property is inspected and look for any serious flaws, future or urgent maintenance issues and problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We search for structural issues and any indications that the property is not in good repair and issues caused by delayed maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten because of peeling paint and areas with damp or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Any of the following might be costly to deal with:

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if the household was constructed or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this pipe, when you know they are there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: The weatherboard can leak. If your household was built in the 1980s, it might have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: In the 1980s until the mid-2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually have a smooth, unbroken appearance.

Asbestos building materials: Used widely from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It could be found on ceilings, roofs, in lino under fences. If you find asbestos in a property, get specialist advice about the risks it presents, how it can be removed, the length of time it will take to remove, and the price of removal.
