The Reason Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Vital

You’ve found a property that looks like it has all the right boxes ticked. The real estate agent says it’s well-built and your DIY professional friend believes it’s great. Should you really have it examined?

If you purchase a house without performing a pre purchase inspection but you could find yourself with some expensive issues that may not be identified, but you may severely limit your ability to seek damages in the event that the home ended up with significant problems.

A pre purchase building inspection report by an qualified Mount Cook building inspector will identify any problems the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future issues, and identify the areas where you can add value. This makes sure that home buyers don’t face unpleasant unexpected costs and offers you the chance to negotiate a lower cost.

We inspect the entire building and find any major flaws, future or urgent maintenance problems and issues due to gradual decline. We look for structural problems or any indication that the property is in require of repair, issues caused by deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten due to peeling paint or areas where there is damp or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Any of the following could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if your house was built or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this pipe when you know they are there.

Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard has been known to leak. If your house was built in the early 80s , it could be equipped with Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: Used from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s A lot of "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally feature a smooth or undulating finish.

Asbestos products: It was widely used from the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It is often found placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fences. If asbestos is found in a property, get specialist assistance on the danger it presents, how it can be removed, the time it would require to remove, as well as the cost for removal.

Inspections of homes or properties offer an unbiased review rather than what the estate agent thinks is the right answer.
