The Reasons Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Crucial

You’ve found one that looks like it’s got everything you want. The real estate agent says it is well-built and your DIY professional friend says it looks fine. Are you required to get it checked?

If you’re buying a home without doing a pre purchase inspection it is imaginable to end up with some costly issues that might have been identified, it could also severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages if the home resulted in significant issues.

A pre purchase building inspection report by a qualified Raureka building inspector will identify any problems the property has, indicate any future issues, and identify points that will add value. It will make sure that home buyers don’t have any nasty surprise and gives you the opportunity to negotiate a lower cost.

We inspect the entire building and identify any significant defects as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues and problems caused by gradual deterioration. We look for structural problems or any indication that the building is a leaky building and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten because of peeling paint, and areas that are damp or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

Each of these could be costly to solve:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if your house was constructed or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this pipe even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard can leak. If the home was constructed in the early 80s , it could have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used from the 1980s until the mid-2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have an unbroken or smooth finish.

Asbestos construction: Widely used since the the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It may be on ceilings, roofs, underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is found in a property, get specialist advice on what risk it presents, how it can be removed how long it will require to remove, as well as the cost of removal.
