Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Important

If you’re purchasing a home without conducting a pre purchase inspection but you could end up owning some pretty costly issues that might have been identified, you may severely limit the ability to claim damages if the house has significant issues.

A pre-purchase inspection report prepared by a certified Mayfair building inspector will show up any defects the property has, as well as any potential issues and highlight the areas where you are able to add value. This ensures house buyers don’t have unpleasant unexpected costs and offers you the opportunity to negotiate a lower cost.

We inspect the entire building and find any major flaws, future or urgent maintenance issues , and any problems caused by gradual deterioration. We are looking for structural issues or signs that the property is in require of repair or issues that result from deferred maintenance such as weatherboards rotting due to peeling paint and areas that are damp or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Any of the following could be costly to deal with:

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

Weatherside cladding: This weatherboard has been known to leak. If your house was built in the 80s, it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: Used from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have an unbroken or smooth finish.

Asbestos products: It was widely used from the the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It can be found on ceilings, roofs, in lino under fences. If asbestos is found in a property, get specialist guidance on the risk it poses, the best way it could be removed, the length of time it will take to remove, and the price of removal.
