The Reasons Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Crucial

If you’re purchasing a house without conducting a pre inspection prior to purchase but you could end up with some expensive problems that could be discovered, but you may be severely limiting the possibility of pursuing damages if the home ended up with a significant issue.

A pre-purchase inspection report prepared by an qualified Paparangi building inspector will show up any defects the property has, as well as any future problems and highlight the areas where you are able to add value. This makes sure that home buyers don’t face any nasty surprises and gives you the chance to negotiate lower cost.

We examine the entire structure and determine any major defects as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues or problems due to gradual decline. We search for structural issues, any signs that the building is in require of repair or has issues due to delayed maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten due to peeling paint and areas that are damp or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Each of these could be costly to solve:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if the house was constructed or rebuilt from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies will not cover any damage that is caused by this type of pipe, when you know they are there.

Weatherside siding: This weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the home was built in the early 80s it may have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used in the 1980s until the mid-2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually have a smooth, unbroken finish.

Asbestos building materials: Widely used since the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It may be on ceilings, roofs, in lino under fences. If you find asbestos in the property, seek expert advice on what risk it poses, how it can be removed, how long it will take to removeit, and the removal cost.
