It’s great, you’ve found the perfect property, and it appears that it’s got everything you want. The real estate agent reckons it is sturdy and solid, while your DIY expert friend says it looks great. Should you really get it checked out?

If you’re buying a house without conducting a pre inspection prior to purchase it’s possible to end up owning some pretty costly problems that could be identified, but you may be severely limiting your ability to seek damages in the event that the home ended up with an issue of significant importance.

A pre-purchase building inspection report prepared by a qualified Clive building inspector will reveal any issues the property has, indicate any future problems and highlight areas that can be improved. It will make sure that home buyers do not face unpleasant unexpected costs and provides you with the chance to negotiate lower price.

We examine the entire structure and determine any major defects as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues and problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We check for structural issues or any indication that the building is not in good repair, issues caused by deferred maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting because of peeling paint and areas where there is damp or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

The following issues could be costly to solve:

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if the home was constructed or rebuilt around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this pipe, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: This weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the home was built in the 1980s, it might have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: In the 1980s until the mid-2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have an unbroken or smooth finish.

Asbestos construction: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It could be found placed on roofs, ceilings, in lino under fences. If asbestos is found at the location, seek professional advice on what risk it presents, how it can be removed, the time it would take to removeit, and the cost of removal.
