Why Are Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Crucial

It’s great, you’ve found an apartment that appears like it has all the right boxes ticked. The agent who is selling it says it’s solidly constructed and your DIY specialist friend believes it’s nice. Do you really need to get it checked?

If you are buying a home without performing a pre purchase inspection, not only could you end up with some costly issues that might be identified, but you may be severely limiting the ability to claim damages if the home was to be stricken with significant problems.

A pre-purchase inspection report issued by a qualified Highbury building inspector will identify any problems the property has, as well as any potential issues and highlight the areas where you are able to add value. This makes sure that home buyers don’t have unpleasant unexpected costs and gives you the chance 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 due to gradual decline. We look for structural problems and any indications that the property has a leaky structure or has issues due to delayed maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten because of peeling paint and areas with damp or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

Any of the following could be costly to solve:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if your house was built or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurers are unlikely cover damage that is caused by this type of pipe, when you know they are there.

Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard is known to leak. If the house was built in the early 80s , it could have Weatherside.

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

Asbestos construction: Widely used since the around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It may be in roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If asbestos is found at the location, seek professional guidance on the risk it presents, how it could be removed, the length of time it will require to remove, as well as the cost for removal.

Inspections of property also known as house inspections are required for anyone buying a house. With the escalating price of homes and the rising costs of building maintenance, it's important to know exactly what you are buying.
