Why Are Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Vital

Congratulations, you’ve discovered an apartment that appears like it has all the right boxes ticked. A real estate agent believes it’s sturdy and solid, while your DIY professional friend says it looks good. Should you really get it checked?

If you are buying a home without conducting a prior inspection prior to purchase, not only could you end up owning some pretty expensive problems that could be discovered, but you may be severely limiting the ability to claim damages in the event that the house has significant problems.

A pre purchase building inspection report by an qualified Grenada Village building inspector will identify any problems the property has, as well as any future problems and highlight the areas where you are able to add value. This will ensure that house buyers do not face unpleasant surprise and also gives you an opportunity to negotiate lower price.

The property is inspected and look for any serious flaws and any urgent maintenance issues , and any problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We are looking for structural issues, any signs that the property is a leaky building or issues that result from deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming 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 could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if your house was constructed or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this piping, if you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: This weatherboard has been known to leak. If the home was constructed in the 1980s, it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: In the 1980s to the mid-2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally feature a smooth or undulating finish.

Asbestos building materials: Widely used since the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It could be found in roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If you find asbestos in the location, seek professional guidance on the risk it presents, how it can be removed, how long it would be to get rid of, and the cost of removal.
