What Are The Reasons Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Important

Congratulations, you’ve discovered one that looks like it’s got everything you want. The agent who is selling it says it’s well-built and your DIY professional acquaintance says it’s nice. Should you really have it examined?

If you’re purchasing a home without conducting a pre inspection prior to purchase it is imaginable to end up owning some pretty costly problems that could have been discovered, but it could also severely limit your ability to seek damages in the event that the home was to be stricken with an issue of significant importance.

A pre purchase inspection report from an qualified Gracefield building inspector will show up any defects the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future issues, and identify points that will add value. This will ensure that house buyers don’t face unpleasant surprises and also gives you the chance to negotiate a lower cost.

We examine the entire structure and identify any significant defects and any urgent maintenance issues and problems due to gradual decline. We are looking for structural issues, any signs that the house is a leaky building or issues that result from deferred maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten because of peeling paint, and areas with damp or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

The following issues could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if your home was constructed or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to 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.

Weathersideexterior cladding: This weatherboard has been known to leak. If the house was built in the early 80s , it may have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: It was popular from the 1980s to the mid-2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have an unbroken or smooth appearance.

Asbestos building materials: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It may be on ceilings, roofs, in lino under fences. If asbestos is found at the property, seek expert assistance on the danger it poses, how it can be removed how long it would be to get rid of, and the cost for removal.
