Why Are Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Crucial

Excellent, you’ve found a property that looks like it’s got everything you want. The agent who is selling it says it’s well-built and your DIY expert friend thinks it’s good. Should you really check it out?

If you purchase a house without performing a pre purchase inspection but you could be left with expensive issues that may not have been identified, it could also severely limit the ability to claim damages in the event that the house ended up with an issue of significant importance.

A pre-purchase building inspection report from a qualified Epuni building inspector will identify any problems that the property may have, highlight any potential issues and highlight areas that can be improved. It ensures home buyers don’t face any nasty unexpected costs and also gives you the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

We check the entire property and look for any serious flaws and any urgent maintenance issues and problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We search for structural issues and any indications that the property is a leaky building or has issues due to delayed maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten because of peeling paint, and areas where there is moisture or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Any of the following might be expensive to sort out:

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

Weatherside siding: This weatherboard can leak. If the household was constructed in the 1980s, it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used from the 1980s to the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically feature a smooth or undulating appearance.

Asbestos construction: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It could be found placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fences. If asbestos is found in the location, seek professional advice about the risks it poses, the very best way it can be removed the time it would require to remove, as well as the price of removal.
