Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Crucial

Excellent, you’ve found one that looks like it has all the right boxes ticked. The real estate agent says it is solidly constructed and your DIY expert acquaintance says it’s good. Do you really have to check it out?

If you are buying a home without doing a pre purchase inspection, not only could you be left with costly problems that could have been discovered, but it could also severely limit your options for claiming damages if the house has an issue of significant importance.

A pre-purchase building inspection report issued by an certified Frasertown building inspector will show up any defects that the property may have, highlight any future problems and highlight the areas where you can add value. It assures home buyers don’t face any nasty surprises and also gives you the chance to negotiate a lower price.

We examine the entire structure and determine any major defects as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues and problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We search for structural issues or signs that the house is a leaky building and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten because of peeling paint, and areas that are damp or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Each of these could be costly to solve:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if your household was constructed or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this piping, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: Weatherside weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the household was constructed in the 1980s, it could have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: Used from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have a smooth, unbroken appearance.

Asbestos building materials: Used widely from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It may be in roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If asbestos is found in a property, get specialist advice on what risk it poses, the best way it can be removed, how long it will take to removeit, and the cost of removal.
