Why Are Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Vital

It’s great, you’ve found a property that looks like it’s got everything you want. A real estate agent believes it is solidly built and your DIY expert friend believes it’s nice. Do you really have to get it checked out?

If you’re buying a house without performing a pre purchase inspection, not only could you end up owning some pretty costly problems that could have been discovered, but it could also severely limit your ability to seek damages if the house resulted in a significant issue.

A pre purchase building inspection report prepared by an qualified Plimmerton building inspector will highlight any flaws the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any potential issues and highlight areas that can be improved. This will make sure that house buyers do not encounter unpleasant unexpected costs and provides you with an opportunity to negotiate lower price.

We inspect the entire building and determine any major defects, future or urgent maintenance issues and problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We are looking for structural issues and any indications that the house is a leaky building and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten due to peeling paint or areas where there is damp or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

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

Weathersideexterior cladding: Weatherside weatherboard is known for its leaks. If your household was constructed in the early 80s , it may have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: In the 1980s to the mid-2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually have a smooth, unbroken appearance.

Asbestos construction: Widely used since the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It may be placed on roofs, ceilings, in lino under fences. If asbestos is found at the property, seek expert advice about the risks it presents, how it can be removed, how long it will require to remove, as well as the cost for removal.
