Why Are Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Important

Excellent, you’ve found a property that looks like it ticks all the boxes. The real estate agent reckons it is solidly built and your DIY professional friend says it looks nice. Should you really have it examined?

If you are buying a house without doing a pre purchase inspection, not only could you end up with some costly issues that might have been discovered, but it could also severely limit the ability to claim damages if the house was to be stricken with a significant issue.

A pre-purchase building inspection report prepared by an certified Taradale building inspector will show up any defects the property has, indicate any future issues, and identify areas to add value. This will make sure that home buyers don’t have any nasty unexpected costs and gives you the opportunity to negotiate a lower cost.

We examine the entire structure and determine any major defects and any urgent maintenance issues and problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We search for structural issues, any signs that the house has a leaky structure and issues caused by delayed maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting because of peeling paint, and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

The following issues could be costly to solve:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if the household was constructed or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this piping, if you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the house was constructed in the early 80s it might have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: In the 1980s to the mid-2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have a smooth, unbroken appearance.

Asbestos products: It was widely used from the around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It is often found placed on roofs, ceilings, in lino under fences. If asbestos is discovered in the property, seek expert advice on what risk it poses, the best way it might be removed, the length of time it will require to remove, as well as the cost for removal.
