What Are The Reasons Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Crucial

Congratulations, you’ve discovered the perfect property, and it appears that it’s got everything you want. The real estate agent reckons it is solidly built and your DIY expert acquaintance says it’s good. Do you really have to get it checked out?

If you purchase a home without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase and you find yourself with some expensive issues that may not be identified, but you may be severely limiting your options for claiming damages if the home resulted in significant issues.

A pre-purchase inspection report prepared by an qualified Haywards building inspector will identify any problems the property has, indicate any future problems and highlight points that will add value. It assures home buyers don’t have any nasty surprises and provides you with an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

We inspect the entire building and determine any major defects and any urgent maintenance issues or problems due to gradual decline. We search for structural issues or any indication that the house is a leaky building or issues that result from deferred maintenance such as weatherboards rotting because of peeling paint and areas that are damp or mould.

Weatherside siding: Weatherside weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the house was built in the early 80s it could have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: It was popular from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s A lot of "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have an unbroken or smooth finish.

Asbestos products: Used widely from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It can be found installed on roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If asbestos is found at an address, you should seek out expert guidance on the risk it presents, how it might be removed, the time it would be to get rid of, and the cost of removal.
