What Are The Reasons Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Vital

You’ve found the perfect property, and it appears that it has all the right boxes ticked. The real estate agent reckons it is sturdy and solid, while your DIY professional friend thinks it’s fine. Should you really have it examined?

If you purchase a house without conducting a pre purchase inspection, not only could you end up with some expensive problems that could have been discovered, but you may severely limit your options for claiming damages if the house has an issue of significant importance.

A pre-purchase inspection report by a certified Maupuia building inspector will identify any problems the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any potential issues and highlight areas to add value. It ensures home buyers don’t have any nasty unexpected costs and also gives you the chance to negotiate a lower cost.

The property is inspected and identify any significant defects as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues and problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We look for structural problems or any indication that the house is in require of repair or issues that result from deferred maintenance such as weatherboards rotting due to peeling paint or areas where there is damp or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

Each of these could be costly to solve:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if your house was built or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They’re 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: Weatherside weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the household was constructed in the 80s, it may have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: Used in the 1980s until the mid-2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically are smooth or unbroken appearance.

Asbestos building materials: It was widely used from the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It could be found on ceilings, roofs, in lino under fences. If asbestos is discovered in the property, seek expert advice on what risk it poses, how it could be removed, the time it would take to remove, and the cost of removal.
