The Reasons Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Crucial

It’s great, you’ve found an apartment that appears like it has all the right boxes ticked. The agent who is selling it says it’s solidly constructed and your DIY specialist acquaintance says it’s good. Should you really get it checked out?

If you purchase a house without performing a pre inspection prior to purchase, not only could you find yourself with some expensive issues that may not have been discovered, but you may severely limit the ability to claim damages if the home was to be stricken with significant problems.

A pre-purchase building inspection report issued by a qualified Ebdentown building inspector will identify any problems the property has, as well as any future issues, and identify areas to add value. This ensures house buyers do not face any nasty unexpected costs and offers you the chance to negotiate lower cost.

We examine the entire structure and determine any major defects as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues and problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We search for structural issues, any signs that the property is in need of repair, issues caused by deferred maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten due to peeling paint or areas where there is damp or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Each of these could be costly to solve:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if the home was constructed or rebuilt from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this pipe even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside siding: This weatherboard is known to leak. If your household was built in the early 80s , it may have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: It was popular from the 1980s to the mid-2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have a smooth, unbroken appearance.

Asbestos products: Widely used since the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It could be found in roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If asbestos is found at the property, seek expert assistance on the danger it poses, how it could be removed, how long it would take to removeit, and the cost of removal.
