The Reasons Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

It’s great, you’ve found an apartment that appears like it meets all the criteria. The real estate agent reckons it is solidly built and your DIY expert friend says it looks good. Do you really have to have it examined?

If you are buying a house without conducting a pre inspection prior to purchase, not only could you be left with expensive problems that could have been identified, you may be severely limiting the possibility of pursuing damages if the home was to be stricken with significant issues.

A pre purchase building inspection report issued by an certified Haywards building inspector will highlight any flaws the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future problems , and indicate the areas where you are able to add value. This ensures home buyers don’t face unpleasant unexpected costs and offers you the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

We check the entire property and find any major flaws and any urgent maintenance issues , and any problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We check for structural issues or signs that the house is a leaky building and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards rotting because of peeling paint and areas with damp or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

Any of the following might be costly to deal with:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if your house was constructed or rebuilt from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this pipe when you know they are there.

Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard has been known to leak. If the household was built in the 1980s, it may have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: It was popular from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have an unbroken or smooth appearance.

Asbestos building materials: Widely used since the the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It can be found on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fences. If asbestos is discovered in an address, you should seek out expert assistance on the danger it poses, how it could be removed, the length of time it will be to get rid of, and the cost of removal.
