The Reasons Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Crucial

Excellent, you’ve found an apartment that appears like it’s got everything you want. A real estate agent believes it is solidly built and your DIY professional friend believes it’s good. Should you really check it out?

If you’re buying a home without conducting a prior inspection prior to purchase it is possible to end up owning some pretty expensive problems that could be identified, but it could also severely limit your ability to seek damages if the home ended up with significant problems.

A pre-purchase inspection report from an qualified Fairfield building inspector will show up any defects the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any potential issues and highlight areas that can be improved. It ensures home buyers do not encounter any nasty unexpected costs and also gives you the chance to negotiate lower cost.

We check the entire property and find any major flaws that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues and problems due to gradual decline. We are looking for structural issues and any indications that the house is in require of repair or has issues due to delayed maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten because of peeling paint, and areas that are damp or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

The following issues could be costly to solve:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if your home was constructed or rebuilt between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this pipe, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: This weatherboard can leak. If your household was built in the 80s, it could have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used from the 1980s to the mid-2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually have a smooth, unbroken finish.

Asbestos products: Widely used since the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It may be on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fences. If asbestos is found at the location, seek professional advice on what risk it poses, how it can be removed, how long it will require to remove, as well as the price of removal.
