Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Important

Congratulations, you’ve discovered one that looks like it has all the right boxes ticked. The real estate agent reckons it is solidly constructed and your DIY specialist friend believes it’s nice. Do you really need to check it out?

If you are buying a house without performing a pre inspection prior to purchase and you end up owning some pretty costly issues that might be discovered, but you may severely limit the ability to claim damages in the event that the home was to be stricken with an issue of significant importance.

A pre purchase building inspection report issued by an qualified Haywards building inspector will show up any defects that the property may have, highlight any future issues, and identify the areas where you are able to add value. It makes sure that house buyers do not face unpleasant unexpected costs and gives you the chance to negotiate lower price.

We examine the entire structure and determine any major defects, future or urgent maintenance issues , and any problems caused by gradual deterioration. We check for structural issues and any indications that the building is not in good repair or has issues due to delayed maintenance such as weatherboards rotting due to peeling paint or areas where there is damp or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

Each of these could be costly to solve:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if the home was constructed or rebuilt between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this piping, when you know they are there.

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

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: Used from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky homes" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually feature a smooth or undulating surface.

Asbestos building materials: It was widely used from the around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It is often found placed on roofs, ceilings, in lino under fences. If asbestos is found at an address, you should seek out expert guidance on the risk it poses, how it could be removed, how long it will take to remove, and the cost of removal.
