The Reason Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Crucial

You’ve found an apartment that appears like it meets all the criteria. The agent who is selling it says it is solidly built and your DIY professional friend thinks it’s good. Are you required to check it out?

If you are buying a house without conducting a pre inspection prior to purchase but you could end up owning some pretty expensive problems that could be identified, but you may be severely limiting the possibility of pursuing damages if the house has significant issues.

A pre-purchase inspection report from an certified Days Bay building inspector will identify any problems the property has, indicate any future problems , and indicate areas to add value. This makes sure that home buyers don’t have unpleasant surprise and provides you with the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

We check the entire property and determine any major defects, future or urgent maintenance problems and issues that are caused by the gradual degradation. We look for structural problems and any indications that the property is not in good repair, issues caused by deferred maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten because of peeling paint, and areas with damp or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

The following issues could be costly to solve:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if your household was constructed or rebuilt around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this pipe, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: The weatherboard has been known to leak. If the house was built in the 1980s, it could have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: Used from the 1980s until the mid-2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually are smooth or unbroken finish.

Asbestos products: It was widely used from the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It may be in roofs, ceilings underneath lino, or fences. If you find asbestos in the location, seek professional guidance on the risk it poses, how it can be removed the time it would take to removeit, and the cost of removal.
