What Are The Reason Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Crucial

Excellent, you’ve found the perfect property, and it appears that it meets all the criteria. The agent who is selling it says it’s well-built and your DIY expert friend believes it’s great. Are you required to have it examined?

If you are buying a house without performing a pre purchase inspection, not only could you be left with costly problems that could have been discovered, but you may be severely limiting the possibility of pursuing damages in the event that the house was to be stricken with a significant issue.

A pre-purchase inspection report prepared by a certified Johnsonville building inspector will identify any problems that the property may have, highlight any future problems , and indicate areas that can be improved. This will ensure that home buyers don’t face unpleasant shocks and gives you the chance to negotiate lower price.

We check the entire property and identify any significant defects as well as any future or urgent maintenance problems and issues caused by gradual deterioration. We are looking for structural issues or signs that the building is in need of repair or issues that result from deferred maintenance such as weatherboards rotting because of peeling paint, and areas with damp or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

Any of the following might be costly to deal with:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if your house was constructed or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies will not cover any damage that is caused by this type of pipe, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: This weatherboard is known to leak. If your household was built in the 1980s, it could be equipped with Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: Used from the 1980s to the mid-2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have an unbroken or smooth appearance.

Asbestos products: Used widely from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It could be found on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fences. If you find asbestos in the location, seek professional guidance on the risk it poses, the very best way it can be removed, how long it would take to removeit, and the removal cost.
