What Are The Reason Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Vital

Excellent, you’ve found the perfect property, and it appears that it meets all the criteria. The real estate agent reckons it’s sturdy and solid, while your DIY specialist acquaintance says it’s nice. Should you really have it examined?

If you are buying a house without conducting a pre purchase inspection, not only could you find yourself with some expensive issues that may not be discovered, but you may be severely limiting your ability to seek damages if the home has a significant issue.

A pre purchase inspection report prepared by an qualified Crofton Downs building inspector will identify any problems the property has, indicate any future problems , and indicate points that will add value. This assures house buyers do not face any nasty shocks and gives you the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

The property is inspected and find any major flaws that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues or problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We are looking for structural issues or any indication that the property is a leaky building or issues that result from deferred maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting because of peeling paint, and areas with damp or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Any of the following could be costly to solve:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if your home was constructed or rebuilt from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this pipe when you know they are there.

Weatherside cladding: This weatherboard has been known to leak. If your home was constructed in the early 80s , it might have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: Used from the 1980s to the mid-2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically are smooth or unbroken finish.

Asbestos construction: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It can be found in roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found in the property, seek expert advice about the risks it poses, how it could be removed, how long it would require to remove, as well as the cost of removal.
