Why Are Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

It’s great, you’ve found the perfect property, and it appears that it ticks all the boxes. The real estate agent reckons it’s well-built and your DIY professional friend says it looks nice. Are you required to check it out?

If you’re purchasing a house without conducting a prior inspection prior to purchase but you could end up with some expensive issues that may not be discovered, but you could severely limit your ability to seek damages if the house was to be stricken with significant issues.

A pre purchase inspection report issued by a certified Raureka building inspector will show up any defects the property has, indicate any future problems and highlight areas that can be improved. This ensures house buyers do not encounter any nasty shocks and provides you with an opportunity to negotiate lower price.

The property is inspected and find any major flaws, future or urgent maintenance issues and problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We check for structural issues or any indication that the building is a leaky building and issues caused by delayed maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten because of peeling paint, and areas where there is damp or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Any of the following might cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if your household was constructed or rebuilt in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this pipe, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside cladding: This weatherboard can leak. If the house was constructed in the early 80s , it may have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: Used in the 1980s and into the mid-2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually feature a smooth or undulating finish.

Asbestos building materials: It was widely used from the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It can be found placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fences. If you find asbestos in an address, you should seek out expert assistance on the danger it poses, the best way it could be removed, how long it would take to removeit, and the cost for removal.
