Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Vital

It’s great, you’ve found an apartment that appears like it ticks all the boxes. The agent who is selling it says it’s solidly built and your DIY expert friend says it looks great. Do you really have to get it checked?

If you’re buying a house without performing a pre inspection prior to purchase but you could end up with some expensive issues that may not have been identified, you may severely limit your ability to seek damages in the event that the home has an issue of significant importance.

A pre-purchase inspection report issued by a qualified Homedale building inspector will reveal any issues the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future issues, and identify areas that can be improved. It will ensure that home buyers don’t have unpleasant unexpected costs and provides you with an opportunity to negotiate lower price.

We check the entire property and look for any serious flaws and any urgent maintenance issues , and any problems caused by gradual deterioration. We check for structural issues or any indication that the building has a leaky structure or issues that result from deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten due to peeling paint and areas where there is damp or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Each of these could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if the house was built or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this pipe in the event that you knew they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: Weatherside weatherboard can leak. If the house was constructed in the 1980s, it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used in the late 1980s through the mid 2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually have an unbroken or smooth finish.

Asbestos building materials: It was widely used from the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It can be found placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fences. If asbestos is discovered in an address, you should seek out expert guidance on the risk it poses, the very best way it can be removed the length of time it will take to removeit, and the cost for removal.
