The Reason Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Crucial

Congratulations, you’ve discovered a property that looks like it ticks all the boxes. The agent who is selling it says it’s sturdy and solid, while your DIY expert friend says it looks fine. Do you really need to get it checked?

If you’re buying a home without doing a pre purchase inspection, not only could you find yourself with some costly issues that might be identified, but you could severely limit the ability to claim damages if the house was to be stricken with a significant issue.

A pre-purchase inspection report from a qualified Alicetown building inspector will highlight any flaws that the property may have, highlight any future issues, and identify areas to add value. This assures home buyers do not encounter any nasty unexpected costs and gives you an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

We check the entire property and find any major flaws and any urgent maintenance issues and problems due to gradual decline. We look for structural problems, any signs that the property is a leaky building and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten because of peeling paint, and areas with damp or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

The following issues could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if the home was constructed or rebuilt in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage that is caused by this type of pipe, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside cladding: This weatherboard can leak. If the household was built in the early 80s , it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: In the 1980s until the mid-2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically feature a smooth or undulating surface.

Asbestos building materials: It was widely used from the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It can be found in roofs, ceilings underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is found in an address, you should seek out expert assistance on the danger it presents, how it could be removed, the length of time it will be to get rid of, and the cost of removal.
