The Reasons Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Crucial

Excellent, you’ve found the perfect property, and it appears that it meets all the criteria. The real estate agent reckons it is sturdy and solid, while your DIY expert acquaintance says it’s fine. Are you required to check it out?

If you are buying a house without conducting a pre inspection prior to purchase but you could find yourself with some expensive issues that may not be identified, but it could also severely limit your ability to seek damages if the home has a significant issue.

A pre-purchase building inspection report by a certified Broadmeadows building inspector will highlight any flaws the property has, as well as any future problems , and indicate areas that can be improved. It will ensure that home buyers do not face unpleasant unexpected costs and offers you the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

We check the entire property and find any major flaws that could lead to urgent or future maintenance problems and issues caused by gradual deterioration. We look for structural problems and any indications that the building has a leaky structure and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten because of peeling paint, and areas where there is damp or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

Any of the following could be costly to solve:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if your household was built or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this piping, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: Weatherside weatherboard is known to leak. If the home was built in the 80s, it may have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have a smooth, unbroken surface.

Asbestos construction: Used widely from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It may be on ceilings, roofs, underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is discovered in the location, seek professional advice on what risk it poses, the very best way it can be removed, the time it would be to get rid of, and the cost for removal.
