What Are The Reason Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Important

You’ve found an apartment that appears like it meets all the criteria. The real estate agent says it is solidly built and your DIY professional acquaintance says it’s good. Do you really need to check it out?

If you’re purchasing a home without performing a pre purchase inspection and you end up owning some pretty costly problems that could be discovered, but you may be severely limiting the ability to claim damages if the home was to be stricken with significant issues.

A pre purchase building inspection report prepared by an certified Arakura building inspector will highlight any flaws the property has, indicate any potential issues and highlight points that will add value. This ensures home buyers do not encounter any nasty surprises and also gives you an opportunity to negotiate lower price.

We inspect the entire building and look for any serious flaws, future or urgent maintenance issues and problems due to gradual decline. We are looking for structural issues, any signs that the building has a leaky structure and issues caused by delayed maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten due to peeling paint and areas that are damp or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

Any of the following could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if your house was constructed or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage that is caused by this type of pipe, if you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: Weatherside weatherboard has been known to leak. If your household was built in the early 80s it could have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: Used in the 1980s until the mid-2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically feature a smooth or undulating finish.

Asbestos products: Used widely from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It could be found placed on roofs, ceilings, in lino under fences. If you find asbestos in the property, seek expert advice on what risk it poses, how it could be removed, the length of time it will take to removeit, and the price of removal.
