Why Are Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Crucial

Congratulations, you’ve discovered one that looks like it meets all the criteria. The real estate agent says it is solidly constructed and your DIY specialist acquaintance says it’s nice. Should you really have it examined?

If you’re purchasing a house without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase but you could be left with expensive issues that may not have been identified, you may severely limit the ability to claim damages in the event that the home was to be stricken with significant problems.

A pre purchase inspection report prepared by a certified Glenside building inspector will identify any problems the property has, as well as any future issues, and identify the areas where you are able to add value. It assures home buyers do not encounter any nasty surprise and provides you with the chance to negotiate a lower cost.

We examine the entire structure and identify any significant defects and any urgent maintenance issues , and any problems caused by gradual deterioration. We check for structural issues and any indications that the property is not in good repair and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten because of peeling paint and areas where there is moisture or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Any of the following might be costly to deal with:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if the home was constructed or rebuilt between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this pipe in the event that you knew they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: Weatherside weatherboard has been known to leak. If the home was constructed in the early 80s , it might have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: It was popular from the 1980s until the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have an unbroken or smooth finish.

Asbestos construction: Used widely from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It is often found placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fences. If you find asbestos in an address, you should seek out expert advice on what risk it poses, how it can be removed, the time it would take to remove, and the cost of removal.
