Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Important

Congratulations, you’ve discovered the perfect property, and it appears that it meets all the criteria. The real estate agent says it is solidly built and your DIY professional acquaintance says it’s good. Should you really check it out?

If you purchase a house without performing a pre purchase inspection it’s possible to be left with costly issues that might have been discovered, but it could also severely limit the ability to claim damages in the event that the house has an issue of significant importance.

A pre-purchase inspection report by an qualified Bridge Pā building inspector will reveal any issues the property has, as well as any future problems and highlight the areas where you are able to add value. This ensures home buyers do not encounter any nasty unexpected costs and gives you an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

The property is inspected and identify any significant defects and any urgent maintenance issues , and any problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We search for structural issues, any signs that the property has a leaky structure or issues that result from deferred maintenance such as weatherboards rotting because of peeling paint, and areas with damp or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

Each of these could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if your house was constructed or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this pipe, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: This weatherboard is known for its leaks. If your home was built in the early 80s , it might have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: In the 1980s and into the mid-2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically are smooth or unbroken appearance.

Asbestos products: The use of asbestos was widespread from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It is often found in roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If you find asbestos in a property, get specialist guidance on the risk it poses, the best way it might be removed, how long it will take to removeit, and the cost for removal.
