The Reasons Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Crucial

It’s great, you’ve found the perfect property, and it appears that it has all the right boxes ticked. The agent who is selling it says it is sturdy and solid, while your DIY professional friend says it looks nice. Do you really have to get it checked?

If you are buying a home without conducting a prior purchase inspection, not only could you end up owning some pretty expensive issues that may not be discovered, but you may severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages in the event that the home was to be stricken with significant problems.

A pre-purchase inspection report by a qualified Clouston Park building inspector will reveal any issues the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any potential issues and highlight points that will add value. It assures home buyers do not face any nasty shocks and provides you with an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

The property is inspected and look for any serious flaws, future or urgent maintenance problems and issues caused by the gradual loss of quality. We search for structural issues, any signs that the property has a leaky structure and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards rotting because of peeling paint and areas where there is moisture or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Each of these could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if your household was constructed or rebuilt between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this pipe, when you know they are there.

Weatherside siding: This weatherboard has been known to leak. If your household was built in the early 80s it may have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: It was popular from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically feature a smooth or undulating appearance.

Asbestos products: Widely used since the the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It could be found placed on roofs, ceilings, in lino under fences. If asbestos is found in the property, seek expert advice on what risk it presents, how it could be removed, how long it would require to remove, as well as the price of removal.
