Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Important

Congratulations, you’ve discovered a property that looks like it meets all the criteria. The real estate agent reckons it is well-built and your DIY specialist friend says it looks good. Do you really have to get it checked out?

If you’re buying a home without performing a pre inspection prior to purchase but you could end up with some expensive issues that may not be identified, but it could also severely limit your ability to seek damages in the event that the house ended up with significant problems.

A pre purchase inspection report prepared by a certified Alicetown building inspector will show up any defects the property has, as well as any future issues, and identify areas that can be improved. It assures home buyers don’t have any nasty unexpected costs and provides you with the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

The property is inspected and find any major flaws as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues or problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We look for structural problems or signs that the house has a leaky structure and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards rotting due to peeling paint or areas where there is damp or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Any of the following could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if your home was constructed or rebuilt in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this piping, when you know they are there.

Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the house was built in the 80s, it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used in the late 1980s through the mid 2000s A lot of "leaky homes" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually have a smooth, unbroken appearance.

Asbestos construction: The use of asbestos was widespread from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It could be found on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found at a property, get specialist guidance on the risk it poses, how it can be removed, the time it would take to removeit, and the removal cost.
