Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

You’ve found a property that looks like it ticks all the boxes. The real estate agent says it’s sturdy and solid, while your DIY professional friend believes it’s nice. Do you really need to have it examined?

If you’re buying a home without conducting a pre purchase inspection and you end up owning some pretty expensive problems that could be discovered, but you could severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages in the event that the home ended up with an issue of significant importance.

A pre purchase building inspection report from an qualified Taita building inspector will identify any problems the property has, as well as any future problems and highlight areas that can be improved. This assures house buyers don’t have any nasty surprise and also gives you the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

We check the entire property and find any major flaws and any urgent maintenance issues , and any problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We are looking for structural issues, any signs that the property is a leaky building or has issues due to delayed maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten because of peeling paint, and areas that are damp or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

The following issues could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if the household was built or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this pipe, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: Weatherside weatherboard can leak. If your home was built in the early 80s it might have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: Used in the late 1980s through the mid 2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually feature a smooth or undulating finish.

Asbestos building materials: Widely used since the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It may be installed on roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If you find asbestos in the property, seek expert advice on what risk it poses, how it might be removed, the length of time it will take to remove, and the removal cost.
