The Reasons Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Crucial

Congratulations, you’ve discovered one that looks like it ticks all the boxes. A real estate agent believes it is solidly constructed and your DIY professional acquaintance says it’s good. Are you required to get it checked out?

If you are buying a house without performing a pre inspection prior to purchase but you could end up with some costly issues that might be discovered, but you could severely limit your ability to seek damages in the event that the house resulted in significant issues.

A pre purchase building inspection report issued by an qualified Fairfield building inspector will identify any problems the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any potential issues and highlight the areas where you can add value. It ensures house buyers do not face any nasty unexpected costs and also gives you the chance to negotiate a lower price.

We inspect the entire building and look for any serious flaws, future or urgent maintenance issues , and any problems caused by gradual deterioration. We look for structural problems or any indication that the building is a leaky building and issues caused by delayed maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting because of peeling paint, and areas with damp or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

The following issues could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if your home was constructed or rebuilt in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this pipe even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside siding: This weatherboard is known for its leaks. If your household was built in the early 80s it could be equipped with Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: It was popular from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually are smooth or unbroken finish.

Asbestos products: Widely used since the the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It may be installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If asbestos is discovered in the location, seek professional assistance on the danger it poses, the best way it can be removed, how long it would require to remove, as well as the cost of removal.
