What Are The Reasons Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

Excellent, you’ve found one that looks like it has all the right boxes ticked. The real estate agent says it is sturdy and solid, while your DIY specialist acquaintance says it’s great. Should you really have it examined?

If you’re buying a home without performing a pre inspection prior to purchase but you could find yourself with some expensive issues that may not have been discovered, but you may be severely limiting the ability to claim damages in the event that the house resulted in significant problems.

A pre purchase building inspection report from a certified Jervoistown building inspector will identify any problems the property has, indicate any future problems , and indicate areas to add value. It assures home buyers don’t face unpleasant surprise and offers you the chance to negotiate lower cost.

We check the entire property and find any major flaws that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues or problems caused by gradual deterioration. We search for structural issues or signs that the house is not in good repair and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards rotting because of peeling paint, and areas where there is damp or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Any of the following could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if your household was constructed or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this pipe, if you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: This weatherboard has been known to leak. If your household was constructed in the 1980s, it could be equipped with Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: It was popular from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically feature a smooth or undulating finish.

Asbestos products: Used widely from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It could be found installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If asbestos is discovered in the location, seek professional assistance on the danger it poses, the very best way it can be removed, the time it would be to get rid of, and the cost of removal.
