What Are The Reason Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Crucial

You’ve found the perfect property, and it appears that it meets all the criteria. A real estate agent believes it’s solidly constructed and your DIY expert friend believes it’s great. Do you really have to have it examined?

If you’re buying a home without doing a pre purchase inspection it is imaginable to end up owning some pretty expensive issues that may not be discovered, but you may severely limit the ability to claim damages if the home ended up with significant issues.

A pre purchase building inspection report issued by an certified Epuni building inspector will reveal any issues that the property may have, highlight any future problems and highlight areas to add value. It makes sure that house buyers do not face any nasty surprise and offers you the opportunity to negotiate a lower cost.

We examine the entire structure and identify any significant defects, future or urgent maintenance issues and problems due to gradual decline. We look for structural problems, any signs that the property has a leaky structure or issues that result from deferred maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten due to peeling paint and areas that are damp or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

Each of these could be expensive to sort out:

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

Weatherside siding: Weatherside weatherboard is known for its leaks. If your household was constructed in the early 80s it could have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: Used from the 1980s until the mid-2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have a smooth, unbroken appearance.

Asbestos construction: It was widely used from the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It can be found installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If asbestos is discovered in the property, seek expert advice about the risks it poses, how it can be removed, the time it would take to remove, and the removal cost.
