Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Important

You’ve found an apartment that appears like it’s got everything you want. The agent who is selling it says it’s sturdy and solid, while your DIY professional friend thinks it’s nice. Do you really have to get it checked out?

If you purchase a house without performing a pre inspection prior to purchase but you could end up owning some pretty expensive problems that could be identified, but you may be severely limiting the possibility of pursuing damages in the event that the house was to be stricken with significant problems.

A pre purchase building inspection report prepared by a qualified Clive building inspector will show up any defects the property has, as well as any future problems , and indicate areas to add value. It assures home buyers don’t face any nasty surprise and offers you the chance to negotiate lower cost.

We examine the entire structure and find any major flaws and any urgent maintenance issues or problems due to gradual decline. We search for structural issues, any signs that the property is not in good repair or has issues due to delayed maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten due to peeling paint and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

The following issues could be costly to solve:

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if the home was constructed or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this pipe in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: This weatherboard can leak. If the house was constructed in the 80s, it could be equipped with Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: Used from the 1980s until the mid-2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have a smooth, unbroken finish.

Asbestos products: It was widely used from the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It is often found on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fencing. If asbestos is discovered in the location, seek professional advice on what risk it poses, how it can be removed, the time it would require to remove, as well as the cost of removal.
