Why Are Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

Excellent, you’ve found one that looks like it meets all the criteria. The real estate agent says it is well-built and your DIY expert friend believes it’s fine. Do you really have to check it out?

If you’re purchasing a house without conducting a prior inspection prior to purchase it is possible to end up owning some pretty expensive problems that could be identified, but it could also severely limit your ability to seek damages in the event that the home has significant issues.

A pre purchase building inspection report from an certified Crofton Downs building inspector will show up any defects the property has, as well as any future problems and highlight points that will add value. This makes sure that home buyers do not encounter unpleasant surprises and provides you with an opportunity to negotiate lower price.

We inspect the entire building and identify any significant defects as well as any future or urgent maintenance problems and issues due to gradual decline. We check for structural issues or signs that the house is a leaky building or has issues due to delayed maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten due to peeling paint or areas where there is damp or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

Each of these could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if the home was built or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until 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 is known to leak. If your household was constructed in the early 80s it could have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally feature a smooth or undulating appearance.

Asbestos products: Used widely from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It may be in roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found in the location, seek professional advice on what risk it poses, how it might be removed, the time it would take to removeit, and the cost of removal.
