Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Crucial

You’ve found an apartment that appears like it’s got everything you want. A real estate agent believes it’s well-built and your DIY specialist friend thinks it’s fine. Do you really have to get it checked out?

If you’re buying a house without conducting a pre purchase inspection it’s imaginable to end up with some expensive problems that could be identified, but it could also severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages if the house has a significant issue.

A pre purchase inspection report from a qualified Riverstone Terraces building inspector will identify any problems the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future problems and highlight the areas where you can add value. This assures home buyers don’t face any nasty surprises and offers you the chance to negotiate a lower price.

We inspect the entire building and look for any serious flaws and any urgent maintenance issues , and any problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We look for structural problems and any indications that the building is in need of repair, issues caused by deferred maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten due to peeling paint or areas with damp or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

The following issues could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if the home was constructed or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages that is caused by this type of pipe, if you knew they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: This weatherboard can leak. If the home was built in the early 80s it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: In the 1980s and into the mid-2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally feature a smooth or undulating surface.

Asbestos products: Widely used since the around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It can be found in roofs, ceilings underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is found at an address, you should seek out expert guidance on the risk it presents, how it might be removed, how long it would be to get rid of, and the price of removal.
