Why Are Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Important

Congratulations, you’ve discovered the perfect property, and it appears that it has all the right boxes ticked. The agent who is selling it says it is solidly constructed and your DIY specialist friend thinks it’s good. Should you really get it checked out?

If you purchase a home without conducting a prior purchase inspection but you could end up with some costly problems that could be discovered, but you may severely limit your options for claiming damages in the event that the home has significant problems.

A pre-purchase building inspection report by an certified Tutira building inspector will reveal any issues the property has, as well as any future problems , and indicate the areas where you can add value. It will ensure that house buyers don’t have unpleasant shocks and offers you the opportunity to negotiate a lower cost.

We examine the entire structure and identify any significant defects as well as any future or urgent maintenance problems and issues that are caused by the gradual degradation. 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 with damp or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

Any of the following could be costly to solve:

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

Weatherside siding: Weatherside weatherboard can leak. If your house was built in the early 80s , it may have Weatherside.

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

Asbestos construction: Used widely from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It is often found in roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found at the property, seek expert assistance on the danger it poses, the best way it could be removed, how long it will require to remove, as well as the removal cost.
