Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Crucial

Excellent, you’ve found one that looks like it ticks all the boxes. The agent who is selling it says it’s solidly built and your DIY specialist friend believes it’s great. Should you really get it checked out?

If you are buying a home without conducting a prior purchase inspection and you end up with some expensive issues that may not have been identified, you may severely limit your options for claiming damages in the event that the home was to be stricken with a significant issue.

A pre purchase inspection report prepared by an qualified Poukawa building inspector will identify any problems the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future problems and highlight areas that can be improved. It makes sure that home buyers don’t have unpleasant shocks and offers you an opportunity to negotiate lower price.

We inspect the entire building and look for any serious flaws that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues , and any problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We search for structural issues or any indication that the building is in need of repair or issues that result from deferred maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting because of peeling paint, and areas where there is moisture or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Each of these could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if the home was built or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They are 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: Weatherside weatherboard is known to leak. If the household was constructed in the 1980s, it may have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: Used in the 1980s and into the mid-2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically are smooth or unbroken appearance.

Asbestos building materials: It was widely used from the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It can be found installed on roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If asbestos is discovered in an address, you should seek out expert advice about the risks it presents, how it might be removed, how long it will be to get rid of, and the cost of removal.
