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’s well-built and your DIY expert friend believes it’s good. Are you required to get it checked out?

If you are buying a home without performing a pre purchase inspection and you end up with some costly issues that might have been identified, you may severely limit the ability to claim damages if the home has significant problems.

A pre-purchase building inspection report issued by a qualified Pirimai building inspector will show up any defects the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future issues, and identify the areas where you can add value. This assures home buyers do not encounter any nasty shocks and offers you an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

We examine the entire structure and find any major flaws, future or urgent maintenance issues and problems due to gradual decline. We are looking for structural issues or any indication that the property has a leaky structure or issues that result from deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten because of peeling paint, and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

Each of these could be costly to solve:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if your home was constructed or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this piping, even if you were aware that they were there.

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

The Plaster monolithic style: In the 1980s to the mid-2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have an unbroken or smooth finish.

Asbestos building materials: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It can be found installed on roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If asbestos is discovered in the location, seek professional guidance on the risk it poses, the best way it might be removed, the time it would take to remove, and the cost for removal.
