What Are The Reasons Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

It’s great, you’ve found one that looks like it’s got everything you want. The real estate agent reckons it is well-built and your DIY professional friend says it looks good. Should you really get it checked?

If you purchase a house without performing a pre inspection prior to purchase it is imaginable to end up owning some pretty expensive problems that could be identified, but you may severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages in the event that the house resulted in significant problems.

A pre purchase building inspection report prepared by an qualified Bay View building inspector will highlight any flaws that the property may have, highlight any potential issues and highlight areas to add value. This makes sure that home buyers do not encounter any nasty surprise and offers you the chance to negotiate lower cost.

We check the entire property and determine any major defects, future or urgent maintenance problems and issues caused by gradual deterioration. We search for structural issues and any indications that the building is a leaky building, issues caused by deferred maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten because of peeling paint, and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

The following issues could be costly to solve:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if the household was constructed or rebuilt around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurers are unlikely cover damage that is caused by this type of pipe, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: Weatherside weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the home was built in the 80s, it could be equipped with Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: Used from the 1980s until 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 to mid-1980s. It could be found placed on roofs, ceilings, underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is discovered in the property, seek expert guidance on the risk it presents, how it could be removed, the length of time it will be to get rid of, and the price of removal.
