The Reasons Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Crucial

It’s great, you’ve found a property that looks like it ticks all the boxes. A real estate agent believes it’s solidly built and your DIY expert friend believes it’s fine. Do you really have to get it checked out?

If you purchase a house without performing a pre purchase inspection, not only could you end up owning some pretty costly issues that might be identified, but you could severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages if the house resulted in significant issues.

A pre purchase inspection report prepared by an qualified Clouston Park building inspector will reveal any issues the property has, indicate any future problems and highlight areas that can be improved. It makes sure that home buyers don’t have unpleasant unexpected costs and offers you the chance to negotiate lower price.

We check the entire property and find any major flaws as well as any future or urgent maintenance problems and issues due to gradual decline. We check for structural issues or any indication that the building has a leaky structure and issues caused by delayed maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten because of peeling paint, and areas with damp or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

Any of the following might cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if your household was constructed or rebuilt in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this piping, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside siding: The weatherboard has been known to leak. If the home was built in the early 80s , it could have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: Used from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally are smooth or unbroken appearance.

Asbestos building materials: Widely used since the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It could be found in roofs, ceilings underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is found at an address, you should seek out expert guidance on the risk it presents, how it could be removed, the length of time it will take to removeit, and the removal cost.
