The Reasons Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

It’s great, you’ve found the perfect property, and it appears that it ticks all the boxes. The real estate agent says it’s well-built and your DIY specialist friend believes it’s good. Are you required to have it examined?

If you’re purchasing a home without doing a pre purchase inspection and you be left with costly problems that could have been discovered, but it could also severely limit your ability to seek damages in the event that the house resulted in a significant issue.

A pre purchase building inspection report issued by a qualified Broadmeadows building inspector will highlight any flaws the property has, as well as any future issues, and identify areas that can be improved. This ensures house buyers do not encounter unpleasant shocks and also gives you the chance to negotiate lower cost.

The property is inspected and look for any serious flaws that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues or problems due to gradual decline. We look for structural problems or any indication that the house is a leaky building or has issues due to delayed maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten because of peeling paint, and areas that are damp or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

The following issues could be costly to solve:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if the household was built or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage that is caused by this type of pipe, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard can leak. If the home was constructed in the 1980s, it may have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: Used from the 1980s to the mid-2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have an unbroken or smooth surface.

Asbestos construction: It was widely used from the around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It is often found on ceilings, roofs, in lino under fences. If asbestos is found at the property, seek expert advice on what risk it presents, how it can be removed, the time it would require to remove, as well as the removal cost.
