Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

You’ve found an apartment that appears like it meets all the criteria. The real estate agent says it’s well-built and your DIY professional friend believes it’s nice. Should you really have it examined?

If you are buying a house without performing a pre inspection prior to purchase it’s imaginable to end up with some costly issues that might be identified, but you could severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages if the home was to be stricken with significant problems.

A pre-purchase building inspection report by a certified Gracefield building inspector will identify any problems that the property may have, highlight any future problems and highlight areas that can be improved. It makes sure that home buyers don’t have any nasty unexpected costs and gives you an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

The property is inspected and identify any significant defects, future or urgent maintenance issues , and any problems caused by gradual deterioration. We look for structural problems and any indications that the property is a leaky building, issues caused by deferred maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten due to peeling paint and areas that are damp or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Each of these could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if the household 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, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: This weatherboard has been known to leak. If the home was built in the early 80s , it might have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: It was popular from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally feature a smooth or undulating finish.

Asbestos products: Widely used since the around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It is often found on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fences. If you find asbestos in a property, get specialist guidance on the risk it presents, how it might be removed, the time it would take to remove, and the cost for removal.
