Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Important

It’s great, you’ve found the perfect property, and it appears that it meets all the criteria. The real estate agent reckons it’s solidly built and your DIY professional friend thinks it’s good. Should you really get it checked?

If you’re purchasing a home without conducting a prior purchase inspection but you could be left with costly issues that might be discovered, but you may be severely limiting your ability to seek damages in the event that the home was to be stricken with significant issues.

A pre purchase building inspection report prepared by a certified Elderslea building inspector will highlight any flaws that the property may have, highlight any future problems and highlight the areas where you are able to add value. It assures house buyers do not face unpleasant shocks and also gives you an opportunity to negotiate lower price.

We check the entire property and find any major flaws, future or urgent maintenance issues and problems due to gradual decline. We search for structural issues or signs that the building is a leaky building and issues caused by delayed maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten because of peeling paint and areas with damp or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Each of these could be costly to solve:

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

Weathersideexterior cladding: This weatherboard has been known to leak. If the household was constructed in the 80s, it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: Used from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically are smooth or unbroken finish.

Asbestos construction: It was widely used from the the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It is often found installed on roofs, ceilings underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is discovered in the location, seek professional assistance on the danger it poses, the best way it can be removed, how long it would require to remove, as well as the cost of removal.
