What Are The Reasons Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Important

You’ve found a property that looks like it meets all the criteria. The real estate agent reckons it’s sturdy and solid, while your DIY expert friend believes it’s good. Should you really have it examined?

If you’re buying a home without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase, not only could you be left with expensive issues that may not be discovered, but you could severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages in the event that the house ended up with an issue of significant importance.

A pre-purchase inspection report from a certified Fairfield building inspector will reveal any issues that the property may have, highlight any potential issues and highlight the areas where you are able to add value. It ensures home buyers do not face unpleasant shocks and offers you the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

We check the entire property and determine any major defects as well as any future or urgent maintenance problems and issues caused by the gradual loss of quality. We are looking for structural issues and any indications that the building has a leaky structure or issues that result from deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten due to peeling paint and areas with damp or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

The following issues could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if the household was constructed or rebuilt between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages that is caused by this type of pipe, when you know they are there.

Weatherside cladding: Weatherside weatherboard has been known to leak. If your household was built in the early 80s it may have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used in the 1980s to the mid-2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have an unbroken or smooth appearance.

Asbestos construction: Used widely from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It may be in roofs, ceilings underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is discovered in an address, you should seek out expert advice about the risks it presents, how it might be removed, the time it would take to removeit, and the price of removal.
