Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Crucial

You’ve found an apartment that appears like it ticks all the boxes. The real estate agent says it’s solidly built and your DIY expert acquaintance says it’s fine. Should you really have it examined?

If you’re purchasing a house without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase and you find yourself with some expensive problems that could have been identified, you may be severely limiting your options for claiming damages in the event that the house ended up with significant problems.

A pre-purchase building inspection report prepared by an qualified Johnsonville building inspector will highlight any flaws that the property may have, highlight any potential issues and highlight the areas where you are able to add value. It ensures house buyers don’t face unpleasant unexpected costs and gives you an opportunity to negotiate lower price.

The property is inspected and look for any serious flaws and any urgent maintenance issues , and any problems due to gradual decline. We check for structural issues or any indication that the house is not in good repair or has issues due to delayed maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten because of peeling paint, and areas that are damp or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Each of these could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if the home was constructed or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this piping, if you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard has been known to leak. If your household was constructed in the early 80s , it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: In the 1980s to the mid-2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have an unbroken or smooth surface.

Asbestos construction: Widely used since the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It could be found in roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If asbestos is discovered in a property, get specialist assistance on the danger it poses, the best way it might be removed, the length of time it will take to remove, and the price of removal.
