The Reason Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Important

Excellent, you’ve found the perfect property, and it appears that it has all the right boxes ticked. The agent who is selling it says it’s solidly constructed and your DIY specialist friend believes it’s nice. Should you really check it out?

If you’re purchasing a home without conducting a pre inspection prior to purchase it’s imaginable to end up with some costly issues that might have been identified, you may be severely limiting your options for claiming damages if the house resulted in a significant issue.

A pre purchase inspection report from an qualified Raureka building inspector will identify any problems the property has, indicate any potential issues and highlight areas that can be improved. This makes sure that house buyers don’t have any nasty unexpected costs and gives you the chance to negotiate lower price.

We check the entire property and find any major flaws that could lead to urgent or future maintenance problems and issues that are caused by the gradual degradation. We look for structural problems or signs that the property is a leaky building or has issues due to delayed maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting due to peeling paint and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Any of the following might cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if the house was constructed or rebuilt in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this pipe when you know they are there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: The weatherboard can leak. If the house was constructed in the 1980s, it may have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used from the 1980s until the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically are smooth or unbroken finish.

Asbestos construction: Used widely from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It could be found installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If you find asbestos in a property, get specialist advice about the risks it poses, the best way it might be removed, the time it would take to remove, and the removal cost.
