What Are The Reason Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Crucial

Excellent, you’ve found an apartment that appears like it meets all the criteria. The agent who is selling it says it is solidly built and your DIY specialist friend believes it’s great. Are you required to get it checked?

If you’re purchasing a home without performing a pre inspection prior to purchase but you could end up owning some pretty expensive problems that could have been identified, it could also severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages in the event that the home was to be stricken with significant problems.

A pre purchase inspection report by a qualified Johnsonville building inspector will highlight any flaws that the property may have, highlight any future problems , and indicate the areas where you are able to add value. This ensures house buyers do not encounter any nasty unexpected costs and provides you with the chance to negotiate lower price.

We check the entire property and determine any major defects as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues , and any problems caused by gradual deterioration. We look for structural problems and any indications that the house is in need of repair or issues that result from deferred maintenance such as weatherboards rotting due to peeling paint or areas with damp or mould.

Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the home was built in the 80s, it might have Weatherside.

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

Asbestos construction: The use of asbestos was widespread from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It may be placed on roofs, ceilings, in lino under fences. If asbestos is found at an address, you should seek out expert advice on what risk it poses, how it can be removed, the length of time it will require to remove, as well as the price of removal.
