Why Are Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Important

It’s great, you’ve found a property that looks like it ticks all the boxes. The agent who is selling it says it is solidly built and your DIY specialist friend thinks it’s fine. Should you really have it examined?

If you’re buying a home without performing a pre purchase inspection and you end up owning some pretty costly issues that might have been identified, you could severely limit the ability to claim damages if the house ended up with significant issues.

A pre-purchase building inspection report from a qualified Grenada North building inspector will highlight any flaws the property has, indicate any future problems , and indicate areas to add value. It makes sure that home buyers do not face any nasty surprises and also gives you an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

We examine the entire structure and look for any serious flaws, future or urgent maintenance issues or problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We look for structural problems or signs that the house is in need of repair, issues caused by deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten due to peeling paint and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

Any of the following might be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if your home was constructed or rebuilt in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this piping, if you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: Weatherside weatherboard has been known to leak. If the home was constructed in the early 80s it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: Used from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have an unbroken or smooth surface.

Asbestos construction: Used widely from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It is often found in roofs, ceilings underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is discovered in the location, seek professional assistance on the danger it poses, how it might be removed, the time it would take to removeit, and the removal cost.
