The Reason Why 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 well-built and your DIY expert acquaintance says it’s good. Are you required to check it out?

If you’re buying a home without conducting a prior inspection prior to purchase it is imaginable to find yourself with some costly problems that could be discovered, but it could also severely limit your ability to seek damages if the house was to be stricken with an issue of significant importance.

A pre-purchase inspection report issued by a certified Broadmeadows building inspector will highlight any flaws the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future problems and highlight points that will add value. This makes sure that home buyers do not encounter any nasty shocks and also gives you the chance to negotiate lower price.

We check the entire property and find any major flaws that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues and problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We check for structural issues or signs that the house is not in good repair or issues that result from deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten due to peeling paint or areas with damp or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

Each of these could be costly to solve:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if your house was built or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this pipe, if you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: This weatherboard is known for its leaks. If your household was constructed in the early 80s , it might have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s A lot of "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually are smooth or unbroken surface.

Asbestos building materials: Used widely from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It can be found on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found in the property, seek expert advice on what risk it poses, how it can be removed, the length of time it will require to remove, as well as the removal cost.
