Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Crucial

It’s great, you’ve found the perfect property, and it appears that it ticks all the boxes. A real estate agent believes it is solidly built and your DIY professional friend thinks it’s nice. Do you really have to have it examined?

If you are buying a home without doing a pre purchase inspection it’s possible to end up with some expensive issues that may not be identified, but you may be severely limiting your options for claiming damages if the home was to be stricken with an issue of significant importance.

A pre-purchase building inspection report from a certified Ebdentown building inspector will show up any defects the property has, as well as any future problems and highlight points that will add value. This makes sure that house buyers don’t face unpleasant unexpected costs and offers you the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

We examine the entire structure and determine any major defects and any urgent maintenance issues and problems caused by gradual deterioration. We look for structural problems and any indications that the house is a leaky building, issues caused by deferred maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten due to peeling paint or areas where there is moisture or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Any of the following could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if the house was built or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this pipe, when you know they are there.

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

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: It was popular from the 1980s to the mid-2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually are smooth or unbroken surface.

Asbestos products: The use of asbestos was widespread from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It could be found placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fences. If you find asbestos in the location, seek professional advice about the risks it poses, the best way it can be removed, the length of time it will take to remove, and the cost of removal.
