What Are The Reason Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Important

If you purchase a home without conducting a pre purchase inspection and you find yourself with some expensive problems that could be identified, but you may severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages in the event that the home resulted in an issue of significant importance.

A pre purchase inspection report from a certified Harbour View building inspector will show up any defects the property has, as well as any future problems and highlight areas to add value. It makes sure that house buyers do not encounter any nasty surprises and also gives you the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

We examine the entire structure and find any major flaws as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues or problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We check for structural issues and any indications that the property is a leaky building or issues that result from deferred maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting because of peeling paint and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

Any of the following could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if your house was constructed or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this pipe, when you know they are there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: Weatherside weatherboard can leak. If the house was built in the 1980s, it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: It was popular from the 1980s until the mid-2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically feature a smooth or undulating surface.

Asbestos construction: It was widely used from the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It may be placed on roofs, ceilings, underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is found at the location, seek professional advice about the risks it presents, how it could be removed, how long it will take to removeit, and the removal cost.
