What Are The Reasons Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

Excellent, you’ve found the perfect property, and it appears that it’s got everything you want. The real estate agent reckons it is solidly built and your DIY professional friend believes it’s great. Should you really get it checked out?

If you purchase a house without conducting a prior inspection prior to purchase it’s possible to end up with some expensive problems that could be identified, but it could also severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages if the house was to be stricken with significant issues.

A pre-purchase inspection report prepared by an qualified Parkvale building inspector will reveal any issues the property has, as well as any future problems , and indicate areas to add value. This will make sure that home buyers do not face unpleasant shocks and gives you the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

We examine the entire structure and look for any serious flaws as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues , and any problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We are looking for structural issues or any indication that the house has a leaky structure or issues that result from deferred maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting because of peeling paint and areas with damp or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

The following issues could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if your house was constructed or rebuilt around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages that is caused by this type of pipe, when you know they are there.

Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard is known to leak. If the house was built in the early 80s , it might have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: It was popular from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s A lot of "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have a smooth, unbroken finish.

Asbestos building materials: Widely used since the around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It could be found in roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If asbestos is discovered in a property, get specialist assistance on the danger it poses, how it could be removed, the length of time it will require to remove, as well as the removal cost.
