Why Are Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Crucial

It’s great, you’ve found an apartment that appears like it meets all the criteria. The real estate agent says it’s solidly built and your DIY professional friend says it looks good. Should you really have it examined?

If you’re buying a home without conducting a pre purchase inspection and you end up with some costly issues that might have been discovered, but you may be severely limiting the possibility of pursuing damages in the event that the house has an issue of significant importance.

A pre-purchase inspection report issued by a certified Cannons Creek building inspector will highlight any flaws the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future problems and highlight areas that can be improved. This assures home buyers don’t have unpleasant shocks and gives you an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

We check the entire property and find any major flaws as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues , and any problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. 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 turning rotten due to peeling paint and areas that are damp or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Any of the following could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic pipe: Check 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 when you know they are there.

Weatherside cladding: Weatherside weatherboard is known to leak. If the house was constructed in the 80s, it might have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used in the 1980s until the mid-2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically feature a smooth or undulating appearance.

Asbestos construction: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It could be found in roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If asbestos is found at the property, seek expert assistance on the danger it poses, the very best way it can be removed, the length of time it will take to remove, and the price of removal.
