What Are The Reasons Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

If you’re purchasing a house without conducting a prior purchase inspection it is possible to find yourself with some expensive issues that may not have been identified, you may be severely limiting your ability to seek damages if the house ended up with a significant issue.

A pre-purchase building inspection report prepared by a qualified Broadmeadows building inspector will identify any problems the property has, indicate any potential issues and highlight the areas where you are able to add value. This ensures house buyers do not encounter any nasty shocks and provides you with the opportunity to negotiate a lower cost.

We examine the entire structure and find any major flaws as well as any future or urgent maintenance problems and issues caused by the gradual loss of quality. We look for structural problems or any indication that the building has a leaky structure or issues that result from deferred maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting due to peeling paint or areas with damp or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

Any of the following might be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if your house was constructed or rebuilt from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this piping, when you know they are there.

Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the house was constructed in the 1980s, it may have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used in the 1980s and into the mid-2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically are smooth or unbroken surface.

Asbestos products: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It can be found placed on roofs, ceilings, underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is discovered in an address, you should seek out expert advice on what risk it poses, the best way it might be removed, how long it would be to get rid of, and the price of removal.
