Why Are Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Vital

Excellent, you’ve found an apartment that appears like it’s got everything you want. The real estate agent says it is solidly constructed and your DIY expert friend says it looks good. Should you really check it out?

If you are buying a home without doing a pre purchase inspection but you could end up with some costly problems that could have been discovered, but it could also severely limit your ability to seek damages if the house resulted in a significant issue.

A pre-purchase inspection report from an certified Haywards building inspector will reveal any issues the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future problems , and indicate points that will add value. It ensures home buyers don’t have any nasty surprises and provides you with the chance to negotiate lower price.

We inspect the entire building and find any major flaws, future or urgent maintenance issues , and any problems due to gradual decline. We search for structural issues and any indications that the building is a leaky building or has issues due to delayed maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten because of peeling paint, and areas with damp or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Each of these could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if the house was built or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this piping, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: This weatherboard is known to leak. If your house was constructed in the 1980s, it could have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used in the 1980s and into the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically feature a smooth or undulating appearance.

Asbestos building materials: Used widely from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It could be found in roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If asbestos is found at the property, seek expert advice about the risks it presents, how it can be removed how long it will be to get rid of, and the price of removal.
