What Are The Reason Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

Excellent, you’ve found an apartment that appears like it’s got everything you want. A real estate agent believes it is solidly built and your DIY specialist friend says it looks nice. Do you really need to get it checked out?

If you are buying a house without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase it’s possible to end up with some expensive problems that could be discovered, but you could severely limit the ability to claim damages in the event that the house was to be stricken with significant issues.

A pre-purchase building inspection report issued by an qualified Pinehaven building inspector will show up any defects that the property may have, highlight any potential issues and highlight the areas where you are able to add value. It assures home buyers do not encounter unpleasant surprise and gives you an opportunity to negotiate lower price.

We examine the entire structure and determine any major defects and any urgent maintenance issues and problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We are looking for structural issues or any indication that the property is in need of repair or has issues due to delayed maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting due to peeling paint and areas where there is damp or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Each of these could be costly to solve:

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

Weathersideexterior cladding: This weatherboard has been known to leak. If the home was constructed in the early 80s it may have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: In the late 1980s through the mid 2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have a smooth, unbroken appearance.

Asbestos construction: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It is often found on ceilings, roofs, underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is discovered in the property, seek expert advice about the risks it poses, how it can be removed, the time it would take to remove, and the cost for removal.
