What Are The Reason Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Crucial

Congratulations, you’ve discovered an apartment that appears like it has all the right boxes ticked. The agent who is selling it says it’s solidly constructed and your DIY specialist acquaintance says it’s nice. Should you really check it out?

If you’re purchasing a house without doing a pre purchase inspection, not only could you be left with expensive issues that may not be identified, but you could severely limit the ability to claim damages if the home ended up with significant issues.

A pre purchase inspection report prepared by an qualified Clouston Park 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 do not face unpleasant unexpected costs and gives you the chance to negotiate lower price.

We check the entire property and determine any major defects and any urgent maintenance issues and problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We are looking for structural issues, any signs that the building is a leaky building, issues caused by deferred maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten due to peeling paint and areas with damp or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

The following issues could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if your house was built or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this piping, if you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: This weatherboard can leak. If the house was constructed in the 1980s, it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s A lot of "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have an unbroken or smooth appearance.

Asbestos construction: It was widely used from the the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It can be found placed on roofs, ceilings, underneath lino, or fences. If you find asbestos in the location, seek professional advice about the risks it poses, how it can be removed how long it will be to get rid of, and the removal cost.
