What Are The Reasons Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Vital

Excellent, you’ve found an apartment that appears like it ticks all the boxes. The agent who is selling it says it’s solidly constructed and your DIY professional friend believes it’s great. Do you really have to check it out?

If you purchase a home without conducting a prior inspection prior to purchase it’s imaginable to end up owning some pretty expensive problems that could have been discovered, but you could severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages in the event that the house ended up with significant problems.

A pre purchase inspection report by a qualified Birchville building inspector will identify any problems the property has, as well as any potential issues and highlight areas to add value. This assures house buyers do not encounter unpleasant surprises and offers you the chance to negotiate lower cost.

We inspect the entire building and determine any major defects as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues or problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We are looking for structural issues or any indication that the property is not in good repair, issues caused by deferred maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting because of peeling paint and areas where there is damp or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Any of the following might be costly to solve:

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. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this pipe, when you know they are there.

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

The Plaster monolithic style: Used from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s A lot of "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically feature a smooth or undulating appearance.

Asbestos construction: It was widely used from the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It is often found on ceilings, roofs, underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is found in a property, get specialist assistance on the danger it poses, the best way it can be removed, the time it would be to get rid of, and the price of removal.
