The Reason Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

Excellent, you’ve found a property that looks like it’s got everything you want. The real estate agent says it is sturdy and solid, while your DIY professional acquaintance says it’s fine. Should you really have it examined?

If you’re buying a house without conducting a pre inspection prior to purchase, not only could you find yourself with some expensive issues that may not have been discovered, but you could severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages in the event that the house was to be stricken with an issue of significant importance.

A pre-purchase building inspection report issued by an qualified Arakura building inspector will reveal any issues the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future issues, and identify areas that can be improved. It will make sure that home buyers do not face unpleasant unexpected costs and also gives you the chance to negotiate a lower price.

The property is inspected and determine any major defects and any urgent maintenance issues or problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We check for structural issues or signs that the property is a leaky building or has issues due to delayed maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten because of peeling paint and areas where there is moisture or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Any of the following could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if your home was constructed or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this pipe in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: Weatherside weatherboard has been known to leak. If your house was constructed in the 80s, it may have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: Used from the 1980s until the mid-2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have an unbroken or smooth surface.

Asbestos building materials: It was widely used from the the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It may be placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found at the location, seek professional advice on what risk it presents, how it might be removed, how long it would require to remove, as well as the removal cost.
