What Are The Reasons Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

Excellent, you’ve found one that looks like it has all the right boxes ticked. A real estate agent believes it’s well-built and your DIY professional friend believes it’s good. Do you really have to get it checked out?

If you’re purchasing a home without performing a pre inspection prior to purchase, not only could you end up owning some pretty costly issues that might be discovered, but you may be severely limiting the ability to claim damages in the event that the house ended up with significant issues.

A pre-purchase inspection report by a certified Arakura building inspector will reveal any issues the property has, indicate any future issues, and identify points that will add value. This assures home buyers don’t face unpleasant unexpected costs and gives you the chance to negotiate lower price.

We examine the entire structure and identify any significant defects and any urgent maintenance issues or problems caused by gradual deterioration. We look for structural problems and any indications that the house is not in good repair or issues that result from deferred maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting because of peeling paint and areas that are damp or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Each of these could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if the household was built or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this piping, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: This weatherboard is known to leak. If your house was built in the 80s, it could be equipped with Weatherside.

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

Asbestos building materials: Widely used since the the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It could be found placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fences. If asbestos is found at the location, seek professional advice about the risks it presents, how it might be removed, how long it will require to remove, as well as the removal cost.
