The Reasons Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Important

Congratulations, you’ve discovered one that looks like it ticks all the boxes. The agent who is selling it says it’s sturdy and solid, while your DIY expert friend thinks it’s fine. Do you really need to have it examined?

If you’re buying a home without conducting a prior inspection prior to purchase and you end up with some expensive issues that may not be discovered, but you could severely limit your ability to seek damages in the event that the house ended up with significant issues.

A pre-purchase building inspection report by a qualified Brown Owl building inspector will show up any defects the property has, as well as any future problems and highlight areas that can be improved. This assures house buyers do not encounter any nasty shocks and offers you the chance to negotiate a lower cost.

We check the entire property and look for any serious flaws that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues or problems caused by gradual deterioration. We check for structural issues or any indication that the property is in need of repair, issues caused by deferred maintenance such as weatherboards rotting because of peeling paint and areas that are damp or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

The following issues could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if your house was built or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this pipe in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: Weatherside weatherboard has been known to leak. If your household was constructed in the 1980s, it might have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: In the 1980s until the mid-2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally are smooth or unbroken finish.

Asbestos building materials: It was widely used from the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It could be found on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fencing. If you find asbestos in the location, seek professional guidance on the risk it poses, how it might be removed, the time it would take to removeit, and the cost of removal.
