Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Crucial

You’ve found a property that looks like it meets all the criteria. A real estate agent believes it’s well-built and your DIY professional friend thinks it’s nice. Are you required to get it checked?

If you’re purchasing a house without conducting a pre inspection prior to purchase but you could be left with costly issues that might have been identified, it could also severely limit your options for claiming damages in the event that the house resulted in significant problems.

A pre-purchase inspection report issued by an certified Ebdentown building inspector will show up any defects the property has, indicate any future problems and highlight the areas where you can add value. It assures house buyers don’t face any nasty surprise and gives you the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

The property is inspected and identify any significant defects as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues , and any problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We search for structural issues and any indications that the house is in need of repair or issues that result from deferred maintenance such as weatherboards rotting due to peeling paint or areas with damp or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

Any of the following could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if the household was built or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this pipe if you knew they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: This weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the house was constructed in the 1980s, it could have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: Used in the 1980s and into the mid-2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually are smooth or unbroken finish.

Asbestos building materials: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It is often found placed on roofs, ceilings, in lino under fences. If asbestos is found in a property, get specialist advice on what risk it poses, the best way it can be removed, how long it would require to remove, as well as the cost for removal.
