Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Crucial

You’ve found an apartment that appears like it ticks all the boxes. The real estate agent reckons it is solidly constructed and your DIY specialist friend says it looks good. Should you really get it checked out?

If you’re buying a house without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase but you could be left with costly issues that might be identified, but it could also severely limit the ability to claim damages in the event that the home ended up with an issue of significant importance.

A pre-purchase inspection report by an qualified Poukawa building inspector will show up any defects the property has, indicate any future issues, and identify the areas where you can add value. It will ensure that home buyers don’t have any nasty surprises and provides you with the chance to negotiate a lower price.

We inspect the entire building and look for any serious flaws, future or urgent maintenance issues , and any problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We look for structural problems or signs that the house has a leaky structure, issues caused by deferred maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten because of peeling paint, and areas that are damp or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

Any of the following could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if the home was constructed or rebuilt around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage that is caused by this type of pipe, when you know they are there.

Weatherside siding: The weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the household was built in the 80s, it might have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: In the 1980s until the mid-2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have a smooth, unbroken appearance.

Asbestos construction: Widely used since the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It could be found on ceilings, roofs, underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is discovered in the property, seek expert assistance on the danger it poses, the very best way it might be removed, how long it would take to remove, and the price of removal.
