What Are The Reason Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Important

You’ve found the perfect property, and it appears that it meets all the criteria. The real estate agent reckons it is solidly built and your DIY expert friend says it looks nice. Do you really have to get it checked?

If you purchase a home without conducting a prior inspection prior to purchase but you could end up owning some pretty costly problems that could have been identified, it could also severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages in the event that the home has significant issues.

A pre-purchase inspection report by an certified Bluff Hill building inspector will highlight any flaws the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future problems , and indicate the areas where you are able to add value. This makes sure that house buyers don’t have unpleasant surprises and provides you with the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

The property is inspected and determine any major defects as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues , and any problems due to gradual decline. We are looking for structural issues or any indication that the house is in need of repair and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards rotting because of peeling paint and areas that are damp or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

Each of these could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if the house was built or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage that is caused by this type of pipe, when you know they are there.

Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard can leak. If your home was constructed in the early 80s it may have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: It was popular from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have an unbroken or smooth appearance.

Asbestos products: Used widely from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It can be found placed on roofs, ceilings, underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is discovered in the property, seek expert advice on what risk it poses, how it can be removed, the length of time it will take to removeit, and the removal cost.
