Why Are Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Crucial

It’s great, you’ve found an apartment that appears like it has all the right boxes ticked. The real estate agent reckons it is solidly constructed and your DIY professional friend says it looks good. Are you required to get it checked out?

If you purchase a home without performing a pre inspection prior to purchase it is imaginable to end up with some expensive issues that may not have been identified, you may be severely limiting the possibility of pursuing damages in the event that the house was to be stricken with a significant issue.

A pre purchase inspection report issued by a certified Greenmeadows building inspector will identify any problems the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future problems , and indicate points that will add value. This assures house buyers don’t face unpleasant surprise and provides you with the chance to negotiate lower cost.

We check the entire property and identify any significant defects that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues and problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We search for structural issues and any indications that the house is a leaky building and issues caused by delayed maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten due to peeling paint and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

Each of these could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if your household was constructed or rebuilt in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages that is caused by this type of pipe, when you know they are there.

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

The Plaster monolithic style: In the 1980s until the mid-2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have a smooth, unbroken surface.

Asbestos construction: The use of asbestos was widespread from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It may be on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found at the location, seek professional advice about the risks it poses, how it can be removed the time it would be to get rid of, and the removal cost.
