The Reasons Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Crucial

It’s great, you’ve found one that looks like it ticks all the boxes. The agent who is selling it says it’s solidly built and your DIY expert friend says it looks nice. Should you really check it out?

If you are buying a home without performing a pre inspection prior to purchase it’s possible to end up with some costly problems that could be identified, but it could also severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages in the event that the home was to be stricken with significant issues.

This will make sure that home buyers do not encounter unpleasant surprises and offers you an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

We check the entire property and look for any serious flaws, future or urgent maintenance issues or problems due to gradual decline. We are looking for structural issues or any indication that the building is a leaky building and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards rotting because of peeling paint, and areas that are damp or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

Each of these could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if your household was built or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages that is caused by this type of pipe, if you knew they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: This weatherboard is known to leak. If your home was constructed in the early 80s , it could have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: In the late 1980s through the mid 2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have a smooth, unbroken appearance.

Asbestos building materials: Used widely from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It can be found in roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If asbestos is found at the location, seek professional advice about the risks it poses, how it could be removed, how long it would be to get rid of, and the price of removal.
