Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Vital

It’s great, you’ve found one that looks like it ticks all the boxes. The agent who is selling it says it is solidly built and your DIY professional friend thinks it’s fine. Are you required to get it checked out?

If you’re purchasing a home without conducting a pre inspection prior to purchase, not only could you end up with some expensive problems that could be identified, but you may severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages in the event that the house was to be stricken with a significant issue.

A pre purchase building inspection report prepared by an certified Johnsonville building inspector will show up any defects the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future issues, and identify areas to add value. This makes sure that house buyers don’t have unpleasant surprise and gives you an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

We examine the entire structure and find any major flaws as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues and problems due to gradual decline. We check for structural issues, any signs that the building is a leaky building and issues caused by delayed maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten due to peeling paint or areas where there is moisture or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

Any of the following could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if the home was built or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage that is caused by this type of pipe, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: This weatherboard is known to leak. If your house was built in the early 80s it may have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: In the 1980s until the mid-2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically feature a smooth or undulating appearance.

Asbestos building materials: It was widely used from the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It may be in roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If asbestos is found in the property, seek expert advice on what risk it poses, how it might be removed, the length of time it will take to remove, and the removal cost.
