The Reasons Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Important

Congratulations, you’ve discovered an apartment that appears like it has all the right boxes ticked. The agent who is selling it says it’s solidly built and your DIY professional acquaintance says it’s nice. Do you really need to get it checked out?

If you’re buying a house without conducting a prior purchase inspection and you find yourself with some expensive problems that could have been identified, you may severely limit your ability to seek damages in the event that the house ended up with an issue of significant importance.

A pre-purchase building inspection report by a qualified Miramar building inspector will reveal any issues that the property may have, highlight any potential issues and highlight areas that can be improved. It makes sure that home buyers do not encounter any nasty shocks and also gives you the opportunity to negotiate a lower cost.

We inspect the entire building and find any major flaws as well as any future or urgent maintenance problems and issues caused by gradual deterioration. We are looking for structural issues and any indications that the building is in need of repair and issues caused by delayed maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting because of peeling paint, and areas where there is moisture or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

The following issues could be costly to solve:

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

Weatherside cladding: This weatherboard is known to leak. If your home was constructed in the 80s, it may have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: Used from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically are smooth or unbroken finish.

Asbestos building materials: It was widely used from the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It could be found on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fences. If you find asbestos in an address, you should seek out expert advice about the risks it presents, how it might be removed, the length of time it will be to get rid of, and the removal cost.
