The Reason Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Crucial

It’s great, you’ve found one that looks like it ticks all the boxes. A real estate agent believes it’s solidly constructed and your DIY professional friend thinks it’s great. Do you really have to get it checked out?

If you purchase a house without conducting a pre inspection prior to purchase it’s possible to be left with expensive issues that may not be identified, but it could also severely limit the ability to claim damages in the event that the home ended up with significant issues.

A pre purchase inspection report issued by a certified Ebdentown building inspector will reveal any issues that the property may have, highlight any potential issues and highlight the areas where you can add value. This will ensure that home buyers don’t have any nasty shocks and provides you with an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

The property is inspected and determine any major defects and any urgent maintenance problems and issues caused by the gradual loss of quality. We search for structural issues, any signs that the property has a leaky structure or has issues due to delayed maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten because of peeling paint, and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

The following issues could be costly to solve:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if the home was built or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this pipe in the event that you knew they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: Weatherside weatherboard can leak. If your home was constructed in the early 80s , it might have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: It was popular from the 1980s to the mid-2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have an unbroken or smooth appearance.

Asbestos building materials: Used widely from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It could be found on ceilings, roofs, in lino under fences. If asbestos is discovered in the location, seek professional advice about the risks it poses, how it could be removed, how long it would be to get rid of, and the cost for removal.
