Why Are Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

Excellent, you’ve found a property that looks like it’s got everything you want. The real estate agent reckons it’s solidly constructed and your DIY professional friend says it looks good. Do you really have to get it checked?

If you’re buying a home without doing a pre purchase inspection, not only could you end up with some costly problems that could have been identified, you may be severely limiting the ability to claim damages if the house has a significant issue.

A pre purchase building inspection report prepared by a qualified Parkvale building inspector will reveal any issues the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any potential issues and highlight areas to add value. It makes sure that home buyers do not encounter any nasty shocks and also gives you an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

We inspect the entire building and identify any significant defects and any urgent maintenance problems and issues caused by gradual deterioration. We look for structural problems and any indications that the building is a leaky building or has issues due to delayed maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten because of peeling paint and areas where there is damp or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Any of the following might be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if the house was constructed or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this pipe even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside siding: Weatherside weatherboard is known for its leaks. If your household was constructed in the early 80s it could have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: Used from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally feature a smooth or undulating appearance.

Asbestos construction: It was widely used from the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It can be found in roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If asbestos is found in an address, you should seek out expert assistance on the danger it poses, the very best way it can be removed, how long it would take to remove, and the cost of removal.
