Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Vital

Excellent, you’ve found the perfect property, and it appears that it’s got everything you want. The real estate agent says it is well-built and your DIY professional friend believes it’s great. Do you really have to get it checked?

If you are buying a home without conducting a prior purchase inspection it’s possible to end up with some expensive problems that could be identified, but it could also severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages if the house resulted in a significant issue.

A pre-purchase building inspection report issued by a qualified Aro Valley building inspector will reveal any issues the property has, as well as any future problems , and indicate areas to add value. This makes sure that home buyers do not encounter unpleasant shocks and provides you with the opportunity to negotiate a lower cost.

We examine the entire structure and determine any major defects, future or urgent maintenance issues and problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We look for structural problems or signs that the house has a leaky structure or issues that result from deferred maintenance such as weatherboards rotting because of peeling paint and areas where there is damp or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

Any of the following could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if your household was constructed or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage that is caused by this type of pipe, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the household was built in the 1980s, it may have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: It was popular from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically are smooth or unbroken finish.

Asbestos building materials: Used widely from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It is often found in roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If asbestos is discovered in an address, you should seek out expert advice about the risks it poses, how it might be removed, the time it would take to removeit, and the removal cost.
