The Reasons Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Important

Excellent, you’ve found a property that looks like it meets all the criteria. The real estate agent reckons it’s solidly built and your DIY professional friend believes it’s great. Do you really need to get it checked?

If you’re purchasing a house without conducting a pre inspection prior to purchase, not only could you end up owning some pretty expensive issues that may not be identified, but you may severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages if the house resulted in an issue of significant importance.

A pre purchase inspection report by a qualified Pipitea building inspector will show up any defects the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any potential issues and highlight points that will add value. This assures house buyers do not face any nasty unexpected costs and also gives you the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

We check the entire property and look for any serious flaws and any urgent maintenance issues or problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We check for structural issues and any indications that the property is a leaky building or has issues due to delayed maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting due to peeling paint and areas where there is damp or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

Any of the following could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if the house was constructed or rebuilt between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this piping, when you know they are there.

Weatherside siding: This weatherboard is known to leak. If your house was constructed in the 80s, it could have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: In the late 1980s through the mid 2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically are smooth or unbroken surface.

Asbestos construction: The use of asbestos was widespread from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It may be on ceilings, roofs, underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is found at the location, seek professional advice about the risks it poses, the very best way it might be removed, the time it would take to removeit, and the price of removal.
