The Reason Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

Congratulations, you’ve discovered the perfect property, and it appears that it meets all the criteria. The real estate agent reckons it is sturdy and solid, while your DIY specialist friend thinks it’s good. Do you really have to get it checked?

If you purchase a home without conducting a prior inspection prior to purchase, not only could you find yourself with some expensive issues that may not have been discovered, but you may be severely limiting the possibility of pursuing damages in the event that the house resulted in an issue of significant importance.

A pre-purchase inspection report prepared by a certified Riverstone Terraces building inspector will show up any defects the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future problems , and indicate the areas where you are able to add value. It ensures house buyers don’t face any nasty surprises and also gives you the chance to negotiate a lower price.

We check the entire property and find any major flaws as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues , and any problems due to gradual decline. We check for structural issues or signs that the property is a leaky building and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten due to peeling paint and areas with damp or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

The following issues could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if your household was constructed or rebuilt in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this pipe, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside cladding: This weatherboard has been known to leak. If your household was constructed in the early 80s it could have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used in the 1980s and into the mid-2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically feature a smooth or undulating finish.

Asbestos construction: It was widely used from the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It is often found on ceilings, roofs, in lino under fences. If asbestos is found in the property, seek expert advice on what risk it poses, how it can be removed the length of time it will take to removeit, and the price of removal.
