What Are The Reasons Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

Congratulations, you’ve discovered one that looks like it’s got everything you want. The real estate agent reckons it’s solidly built and your DIY specialist acquaintance says it’s good. Should you really get it checked out?

If you’re buying a home without conducting a prior purchase inspection but you could find yourself with some expensive issues that may not have been identified, you may be severely limiting the ability to claim damages in the event that the home has significant problems.

A pre purchase inspection report issued by a qualified Pipitea building inspector will highlight any flaws that the property may have, highlight any future issues, and identify the areas where you are able to add value. This ensures house buyers do not face any nasty surprises and gives you the chance to negotiate lower cost.

We inspect the entire building and determine any major defects, future or urgent maintenance problems and issues caused by gradual deterioration. We look for structural problems or signs that the house is not in good repair or has issues due to delayed maintenance such as weatherboards rotting because of peeling paint, and areas with damp or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

Any of the following might be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if your house was constructed or rebuilt between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this pipe, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: Weatherside weatherboard is known to leak. If the house was constructed in the 80s, it may have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: In the 1980s and into the mid-2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically feature a smooth or undulating appearance.

Asbestos construction: Used widely from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It may be installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found in a property, get specialist guidance on the risk it presents, how it could be removed, the time it would be to get rid of, and the removal cost.
