Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Important

Excellent, you’ve found an apartment that appears like it has all the right boxes ticked. The agent who is selling it says it is solidly constructed and your DIY expert friend says it looks great. Should you really get it checked?

If you are buying a home without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase and you end up owning some pretty costly problems that could be identified, but you could severely limit the ability to claim damages in the event that the home resulted in a significant issue.

A pre-purchase inspection report prepared by a certified Miramar building inspector will show up any defects that the property may have, highlight any future issues, and identify areas to add value. This will make sure that home buyers don’t have unpleasant surprise and gives you an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

The property is inspected and determine any major defects as well as any future or urgent maintenance problems and issues due to gradual decline. We are looking for structural issues or signs that the house has a leaky structure or issues that result from deferred maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting due to peeling paint or areas where there is damp or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

Any of the following could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if your home was constructed or rebuilt from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this pipe even if you were aware that they were there.

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

Monolithic Plaster cladding: It was popular from the 1980s until the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually have an unbroken or smooth finish.

Asbestos products: Used widely from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It could be found on ceilings, roofs, in lino under fences. If you find asbestos in a property, get specialist advice on what risk it presents, how it could be removed, how long it will take to removeit, and the cost of removal.
