What Are The Reason Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Crucial

Excellent, you’ve found the perfect property, and it appears that it’s got everything you want. The agent who is selling it says it is solidly built and your DIY professional friend thinks it’s good. Do you really have to have it examined?

If you purchase a home without performing a pre purchase inspection it is imaginable to find yourself with some costly issues that might have been discovered, but you may severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages in the event that the house resulted in significant issues.

A pre purchase building inspection report from a certified Brown Owl building inspector will highlight any flaws the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future problems , and indicate areas that can be improved. This will ensure that house buyers don’t face any nasty surprise and also gives you the chance to negotiate lower cost.

The property is inspected and determine any major defects, future or urgent maintenance issues and problems due to gradual decline. We search for structural issues or any indication that the building has a leaky structure, issues caused by deferred maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting due to peeling paint and areas with damp or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Each of these could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if your house was constructed or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this pipe when you know they are there.

Weatherside siding: This weatherboard is known to leak. If the household was built in the 80s, it could have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: In the late 1980s through the mid 2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically feature a smooth or undulating appearance.

Asbestos construction: It was widely used from the around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It can be found in roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If asbestos is discovered in a property, get specialist guidance on the risk it presents, how it can be removed, the length of time it will be to get rid of, and the price of removal.
