The Reason Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Important

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 is sturdy and solid, while your DIY expert acquaintance says it’s good. Do you really have to have it examined?

If you’re purchasing a house without conducting a prior inspection prior to purchase and you find yourself with some expensive problems that could have been identified, you may be severely limiting the possibility of pursuing damages in the event that the house resulted in significant issues.

A pre-purchase inspection report by a certified Epuni building inspector will reveal any issues the property has, indicate any potential issues and highlight areas that can be improved. This ensures house buyers don’t have unpleasant shocks and offers you the chance to negotiate lower price.

We inspect the entire building and find any major flaws as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues or problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We look for structural problems, any signs that the property has a leaky structure or issues that result from deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten because of peeling paint, and areas where there is damp or mould.

Weathersideexterior cladding: This weatherboard is known to leak. If your household was built in the 1980s, it might have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: It was popular from the 1980s to the mid-2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically feature a smooth or undulating surface.

If asbestos is found in an address, you should seek out expert advice on what risk it poses, how it might be removed, how long it would require to remove, as well as the cost of removal.
