What Are The Reason Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Important

Congratulations, you’ve discovered the perfect property, and it appears that it has all the right boxes ticked. The real estate agent reckons it is sturdy and solid, while your DIY professional friend says it looks fine. Are you required to get it checked?

If you’re buying a home without conducting a pre purchase inspection, not only could you end up owning some pretty costly problems that could be discovered, but you may be severely limiting your ability to seek damages in the event that the home resulted in an issue of significant importance.

A pre-purchase building inspection report by an certified Epuni building inspector will highlight any flaws the property has, indicate any future problems and highlight areas that can be improved. This makes sure that home buyers do not face unpleasant surprises and also gives you the opportunity to negotiate a lower cost.

We inspect the entire building and identify any significant defects that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues and problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We look for structural problems or signs that the house is not in good repair or issues that result from deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten due to peeling paint and areas where there is damp or mould.

Weathersideexterior cladding: This weatherboard is known to leak. If your house was built in the early 80s , it might have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: It was popular from the 1980s until the mid-2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically are smooth or unbroken finish.

Asbestos construction: Used widely from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It can be found installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If asbestos is discovered in the location, seek professional advice about the risks it presents, how it could be removed, how long it will be to get rid of, and the price of removal.
