The Reasons Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Crucial

It’s great, you’ve found the perfect property, and it appears that it has all the right boxes ticked. The real estate agent says it’s sturdy and solid, while your DIY professional friend thinks it’s fine. Are you required to have it examined?

If you purchase a home without conducting a prior inspection prior to purchase and you find yourself with some expensive problems that could be identified, but you could severely limit your options for claiming damages in the event that the house was to be stricken with significant problems.

A pre-purchase building inspection report from a qualified Arakura building inspector will show up any defects the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future problems and highlight areas to add value. This assures home buyers don’t face any nasty surprise and gives you the chance to negotiate lower cost.

The property is inspected and determine any major defects as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues , and any problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We look for structural problems, any signs that the property has a leaky structure or issues that result from deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten due to peeling paint and areas where there is damp or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

Any of the following might cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if your house was built or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this pipe, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: This weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the house was constructed in the 80s, it could have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used in the late 1980s through the mid 2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have a smooth, unbroken surface.

Asbestos construction: It was widely used from the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It could be found on ceilings, roofs, in lino under fences. If asbestos is found at a property, get specialist guidance on the risk it poses, the best way it might be removed, the length of time it will take to removeit, and the cost of removal.
