The Reason Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Crucial

Congratulations, you’ve discovered the perfect property, and it appears that it’s got everything you want. The agent who is selling it says it’s sturdy and solid, while your DIY professional friend says it looks fine. Are you required to get it checked out?

If you’re buying a home without conducting a prior inspection prior to purchase, not only could you end up owning some pretty expensive problems that could have been identified, you may be severely limiting the ability to claim damages if the house resulted in significant problems.

A pre purchase building inspection report from an certified Breaker Bay building inspector will show up any defects the property has, as well as any future problems and highlight areas to add value. This will ensure that home buyers do not encounter any nasty unexpected costs and gives you the chance to negotiate lower price.

We inspect the entire building and find any major flaws and any urgent maintenance issues , and any problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We are looking for structural issues or any indication that the building is not in good repair or issues that result from deferred maintenance such as weatherboards rotting due to peeling paint or areas with damp or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

Any of the following could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if your household was constructed or rebuilt around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this piping, if you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: Weatherside weatherboard can leak. If your household was built in the early 80s , it might have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: In the 1980s until the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically feature a smooth or undulating appearance.

Asbestos building materials: Widely used since the the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It could be found on ceilings, roofs, underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is found at the property, seek expert guidance on the risk it poses, the very best way it can be removed, how long it would be to get rid of, and the removal cost.
