The Reasons Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Important

Congratulations, you’ve discovered an apartment that appears like it’s got everything you want. The real estate agent says it’s sturdy and solid, while your DIY professional friend thinks it’s good. Do you really need to have it examined?

If you are buying a home without conducting a pre purchase inspection it’s imaginable to end up with some costly problems that could be discovered, but it could also severely limit your options for claiming damages if the home was to be stricken with significant issues.

A pre-purchase inspection report issued by a certified Cannons Creek building inspector will identify any problems the property has, as well as any future issues, and identify areas that can be improved. It makes sure that house buyers do not face any nasty surprise and provides you with the chance to negotiate lower cost.

We examine the entire structure and determine any major defects as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues and problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We check for structural issues, any signs that the property has a leaky structure and issues caused by delayed maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten due to peeling paint or areas where there is moisture or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Each of these could be costly to solve:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if your home was constructed or rebuilt from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this pipe, if you knew they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: Weatherside weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the household was constructed in the 80s, it may have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: Used in the late 1980s through the mid 2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have a smooth, unbroken appearance.

Asbestos products: Used widely from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It can be found in roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If asbestos is found at a property, get specialist advice about the risks it poses, how it could be removed, how long it will take to removeit, and the removal cost.
