The Reasons Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

It’s great, you’ve found the perfect property, and it appears that it ticks all the boxes. A real estate agent believes it’s solidly constructed and your DIY expert acquaintance says it’s good. Should you really check it out?

If you’re buying a house without doing a pre purchase inspection and you find yourself with some costly problems that could have been discovered, but it could also severely limit the ability to claim damages in the event that the home has a significant issue.

A pre-purchase inspection report prepared by an qualified Ascot Park building inspector will identify any problems that the property may have, highlight any potential issues and highlight points that will add value. It ensures home buyers do not encounter any nasty shocks and offers you the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

We examine the entire structure and determine any major defects that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues and problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We look for structural problems or signs that the house is not in good repair or issues that result from deferred maintenance such as weatherboards rotting because of peeling paint and areas where there is damp or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if your home was constructed or rebuilt between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage that is caused by this type of pipe, when you know they are there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: The weatherboard can leak. If the home was constructed in the 1980s, it might have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: It was popular from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have an unbroken or smooth surface.

Asbestos building materials: Used widely from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It can be found installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If asbestos is discovered in an address, you should seek out expert guidance on the risk it poses, how it can be removed the time it would take to removeit, and the cost of removal.
