Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Important

It’s great, you’ve found one that looks like it has all the right boxes ticked. A real estate agent believes it’s well-built and your DIY professional friend says it looks good. Do you really have to have it examined?

If you are buying a home without conducting a pre inspection prior to purchase, not only could you end up with some expensive problems that could have been identified, you may severely limit your options for claiming damages if the house resulted in significant issues.

A pre purchase building inspection report from a qualified Iona building inspector will reveal any issues the property has, as well as any future problems , and indicate the areas where you can add value. It will make sure that house buyers don’t face any nasty unexpected costs and gives you an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

The property is inspected and find any major flaws, future or urgent maintenance issues or problems caused by gradual deterioration. We look for structural problems or signs that the house is in need of repair or issues that result from deferred maintenance such as weatherboards rotting due to peeling paint or areas where there is moisture or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Each of these could be costly to solve:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if the household was built or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this piping, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside siding: This weatherboard is known for its leaks. If your household was constructed in the 1980s, it might have Weatherside.

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

Asbestos products: Used widely from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It could be found on ceilings, roofs, underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is discovered in a property, get specialist guidance on the risk it presents, how it can be removed the time it would require to remove, as well as the cost for removal.
