Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

It’s great, you’ve found one that looks like it meets all the criteria. The real estate agent reckons it’s solidly constructed and your DIY professional acquaintance says it’s great. Do you really have to check it out?

If you purchase a house without conducting a pre inspection prior to purchase, not only could you end up with some costly problems that could be identified, but you could severely limit the ability to claim damages if the home has significant problems.

A pre-purchase building inspection report from an qualified Broadmeadows building inspector will show up any defects the property has, indicate any potential issues and highlight points that will add value. This assures home buyers do not encounter any nasty unexpected costs and provides you with an opportunity to negotiate lower price.

We examine the entire structure and determine any major defects, future or urgent maintenance issues or problems caused by gradual deterioration. We are looking for structural issues or any indication that the house has a leaky structure or issues that result from deferred maintenance such as weatherboards rotting due to peeling paint or areas where there is damp or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Any of the following could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if the household was constructed or rebuilt from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this piping, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: Weatherside weatherboard can leak. If the household was constructed in the early 80s , it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: It was popular from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically feature a smooth or undulating surface.

Asbestos construction: Widely used since the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It can be found installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found at the property, seek expert guidance on the risk it poses, the best way it might be removed, the length of time it will be to get rid of, and the price of removal.
