Why Are Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

You’ve found the perfect property, and it appears that it meets all the criteria. The real estate agent says it’s sturdy and solid, while your DIY specialist friend thinks it’s great. Should you really check it out?

If you are buying a home without performing a pre inspection prior to purchase it is possible to end up with some expensive issues that may not have been identified, you may severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages in the event that the house was to be stricken with significant problems.

It ensures home buyers do not encounter any nasty shocks and offers you the chance to negotiate lower cost.

We examine the entire structure and look for any serious flaws as well as any future or urgent maintenance problems and issues that are caused by the gradual degradation. We search for structural issues, any signs that the building has a leaky structure or has issues due to delayed maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten due to peeling paint and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

Any of the following might be costly to deal with:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if the house was built or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages 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 the household was built in the 1980s, it could have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used from the 1980s until the mid-2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally feature a smooth or undulating finish.

Asbestos building materials: Used widely from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It can be found installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If you find asbestos in an address, you should seek out expert advice on what risk it presents, how it can be removed the length of time it will take to removeit, and the price of removal.
