The Reasons Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Crucial

Congratulations, you’ve discovered an apartment that appears like it has all the right boxes ticked. The real estate agent reckons it’s solidly built and your DIY specialist friend thinks it’s fine. Do you really have to get it checked out?

If you’re buying a home without doing a pre purchase inspection it’s possible to end up owning some pretty costly problems that could be discovered, but you could severely limit the ability to claim damages if the house has a significant issue.

A pre-purchase inspection report issued by a qualified Epuni building inspector will show up any defects the property has, as well as any future issues, and identify the areas where you can add value. This makes sure that home buyers do not face any nasty shocks and offers you the chance to negotiate a lower price.

The property is inspected and identify any significant defects as well as any future or urgent maintenance problems and issues caused by gradual deterioration. We check for structural issues and any indications that the house has a leaky structure or issues that result from deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten because of peeling paint, and areas where there is moisture or mould.

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

The Plaster monolithic style: In the 1980s to the mid-2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have an unbroken or smooth surface.

Asbestos products: The use of asbestos was widespread from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It could be found installed on roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If asbestos is discovered in the location, seek professional guidance on the risk it poses, the very best way it can be removed, the time it would require to remove, as well as the cost of removal.
