The Reasons Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Vital

Excellent, you’ve found a property that looks like it meets all the criteria. The real estate agent says it is solidly constructed and your DIY expert friend believes it’s good. Are you required to check it out?

If you are buying a house without conducting a prior inspection prior to purchase and you be left with costly problems that could have been identified, it could also severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages if the house ended up with significant issues.

A pre purchase building inspection report issued by a qualified Taradale building inspector will identify any problems the property has, indicate any future issues, and identify areas that can be improved. It assures home buyers don’t face unpleasant surprises and provides you with an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

We check the entire property and determine any major defects and any urgent maintenance issues or problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We search for structural issues, any signs that the house is in need of repair or issues that result from deferred maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten due to peeling paint and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

Black plastic piping: Check for them if the home was built or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurers are unlikely cover damage that is caused by this type of pipe, if you knew they were there.

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

The Plaster monolithic style: Used from the 1980s until the mid-2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally are smooth or unbroken surface.

Asbestos products: The use of asbestos was widespread from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It can be found in roofs, ceilings underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is found at a property, get specialist advice about the risks it presents, how it could be removed, the time it would take to remove, and the cost for removal.
