The Reasons Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Crucial

Congratulations, you’ve discovered the perfect property, and it appears that it has all the right boxes ticked. The real estate agent reckons it is solidly built and your DIY professional friend says it looks great. Do you really need to get it checked?

If you’re purchasing a home without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase, not only could you end up owning some pretty expensive problems that could have been identified, you may be severely limiting the ability to claim damages if the home was to be stricken with significant issues.

A pre purchase inspection report prepared by an certified Hataitai building inspector will reveal any issues the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future problems and highlight areas to add value. This will ensure that house buyers do not face unpleasant shocks and offers you an opportunity to negotiate lower price.

We examine the entire structure and identify any significant defects and any urgent maintenance issues or problems due to gradual decline. We look for structural problems, any signs that the building is not in good repair or has issues due to delayed maintenance such as weatherboards rotting because of peeling paint, and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

The following issues could be costly to solve:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if the house was built or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this piping, when you know they are there.

Weatherside cladding: This weatherboard has been known to leak. If the household was built in the early 80s , it could have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: In the 1980s until the mid-2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically feature a smooth or undulating appearance.

Asbestos products: It was widely used from the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It may be in roofs, ceilings underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is discovered in a property, get specialist advice on what risk it presents, how it could be removed, the time it would take to remove, and the cost for removal.
