Why Are Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Crucial

Excellent, you’ve found one that looks like it has all the right boxes ticked. The agent who is selling it says it’s solidly constructed and your DIY specialist friend thinks it’s good. Do you really need to get it checked out?

If you’re buying a home without conducting a prior inspection prior to purchase but you could end up with some expensive issues that may not be identified, but you may be severely limiting your options for claiming damages if the house was to be stricken with a significant issue.

A pre-purchase inspection report prepared by an qualified Ascot Park building inspector will reveal any issues the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future problems , and indicate areas to add value. This assures house buyers don’t have unpleasant shocks and gives you the chance to negotiate a lower cost.

We check the entire property and look for any serious flaws that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues and problems caused by gradual deterioration. We are looking for structural issues or signs that the building is a leaky building and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten due to peeling paint or areas where there is damp or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

Any of the following could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if the household was constructed 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 when you know they are there.

Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard can leak. If the house was built in the 80s, it may have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: Used from the 1980s to the mid-2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have a smooth, unbroken appearance.

Asbestos products: Used widely from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It may be installed on roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If you find asbestos in an address, you should seek out expert guidance on the risk it presents, how it can be removed how long it will take to removeit, and the price of removal.
