Why Are Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Important

It’s great, you’ve found an apartment that appears like it has all the right boxes ticked. A real estate agent believes it’s solidly built and your DIY professional acquaintance says it’s good. Are you required to check it out?

If you are buying a home without conducting a prior purchase inspection and you end up owning some pretty expensive issues that may not have been discovered, but it could also severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages in the event that the home resulted in an issue of significant importance.

A pre-purchase building inspection report from a certified Broadmeadows building inspector will show up any defects the property has, as well as any future problems and highlight the areas where you are able to add value. It ensures house buyers do not encounter unpleasant surprises and also gives you the opportunity to negotiate a lower cost.

We examine the entire structure and find any major flaws that could lead to urgent or future maintenance problems and issues due to gradual decline. We check for structural issues, any signs that the building has a leaky structure, issues caused by deferred maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten 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: You should look for them if the household was built or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this pipe when you know they are there.

Weatherside siding: This weatherboard is known to leak. If the home was constructed in the early 80s it may have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: It was popular from the 1980s until the mid-2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have an unbroken or smooth appearance.

Asbestos construction: It was widely used from the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It may be placed on roofs, ceilings, in lino under fences. If asbestos is discovered in an address, you should seek out expert advice about the risks it poses, the very best way it can be removed how long it would be to get rid of, and the cost of removal.
