Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Crucial

You’ve found one that looks like it ticks all the boxes. The agent who is selling it says it is well-built and your DIY expert friend believes it’s great. Should you really get it checked?

If you’re purchasing a house without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase but you could find yourself with some costly issues that might have been identified, you could severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages in the event that the home ended up with significant problems.

A pre purchase inspection report issued by an qualified Manor Park building inspector will show up any defects that the property may have, highlight any future problems , and indicate areas that can be improved. This makes sure that home buyers don’t have unpleasant unexpected costs and offers you the chance to negotiate a lower cost.

We inspect the entire building and identify any significant defects that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues and problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We look for structural problems or signs that the property is in need of repair or issues that result from deferred maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting due to peeling paint and areas where there is damp or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Any of the following might be costly to deal with:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if the house was constructed or rebuilt between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this pipe in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: Weatherside weatherboard is known to leak. If your home was built in the 1980s, it might have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: In the 1980s and into the mid-2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have a smooth, unbroken surface.

Asbestos building materials: Used widely from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It can be found in roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If asbestos is discovered in the property, seek expert advice on what risk it poses, the very best way it can be removed, how long it will be to get rid of, and the cost of removal.
