The Reason Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

You’ve found an apartment that appears like it’s got everything you want. The agent who is selling it says it’s solidly constructed and your DIY expert friend says it looks nice. Do you really have to get it checked?

If you’re buying a house without performing a pre purchase inspection, not only could you end up owning some pretty costly issues that might have been discovered, but you may be severely limiting your ability to seek damages if the house ended up with significant issues.

A pre purchase inspection report by an qualified Greenmeadows building inspector will reveal any issues the property has, as well as any future problems and highlight the areas where you can add value. It makes sure that house buyers don’t have any nasty shocks and provides you with the chance to negotiate a lower price.

We examine the entire structure and look for any serious flaws, future or urgent maintenance issues or problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We look for structural problems and any indications that the building has a leaky structure or has issues due to delayed maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting due to peeling paint and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

The following issues could cost a lot to resolve:

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

Weatherside cladding: Weatherside weatherboard has been known to leak. If your home was constructed in the 1980s, it could have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: Used from the 1980s to the mid-2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually have an unbroken or smooth surface.

Asbestos building materials: It was widely used from the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It could be found installed on roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If asbestos is found at an address, you should seek out expert guidance on the risk it poses, how it might be removed, how long it will require to remove, as well as the cost for removal.
