What Are The Reason Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Crucial

Excellent, you’ve found one that looks like it has all the right boxes ticked. A real estate agent believes it is solidly built and your DIY expert friend thinks it’s great. Should you really have it examined?

If you purchase a home without performing a pre inspection prior to purchase it’s possible to end up with some expensive problems that could have been discovered, but you could severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages in the event that the home resulted in significant problems.

A pre purchase inspection report issued by an qualified Flaxmere building inspector will identify any problems the property has, as well as any future problems and highlight areas to add value. This makes sure that house buyers do not encounter any nasty shocks and gives you the chance to negotiate a lower cost.

We check the entire property and identify any significant defects, future or urgent maintenance issues or problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We check for structural issues, any signs that the house is not in good repair or issues that result from deferred maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten because of peeling paint and areas that are damp or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

The following issues could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if the household was constructed or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this piping, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the household was constructed in the 80s, it could be equipped with Weatherside.

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

Asbestos construction: It was widely used from the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It could be found on ceilings, roofs, in lino under fences. If asbestos is found in an address, you should seek out expert advice about the risks it poses, the best way it could be removed, how long it will take to remove, and the cost for removal.
