The Reason Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Vital

You’ve found a property that looks like it meets all the criteria. The real estate agent says it’s sturdy and solid, while your DIY expert acquaintance says it’s fine. Are you required to check it out?

If you’re buying a house without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase and you end up with some expensive issues that may not have been discovered, but you may be severely limiting the ability to claim damages in the event that the house was to be stricken with significant issues.

A pre-purchase building inspection report from an certified Breaker Bay building inspector will identify any problems the property has, indicate any future problems , and indicate areas that can be improved. It assures home buyers do not encounter any nasty surprise and offers you the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

We examine the entire structure and determine any major defects as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues and problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We search for structural issues, any signs that the property has a leaky structure, issues caused by deferred maintenance such as weatherboards rotting due to peeling paint and areas that are damp or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

Any of the following could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if your home was constructed or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this piping, if you knew they were there.

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

The Plaster monolithic style: It was popular from the 1980s until the mid-2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have a smooth, unbroken surface.

Asbestos building materials: Used widely from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It is often found in roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found at the location, seek professional advice about the risks it poses, the very best way it might be removed, how long it will be to get rid of, and the cost for removal.
