Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Crucial

It’s great, you’ve found a property that looks like it has all the right boxes ticked. The real estate agent says it is solidly built and your DIY expert friend thinks it’s good. Should you really check it out?

If you’re buying a home without conducting a pre inspection prior to purchase, not only could you find yourself with some costly problems that could have been discovered, but you may be severely limiting your ability to seek damages in the event that the house ended up with an issue of significant importance.

A pre-purchase inspection report by a qualified Roseneath building inspector will identify any problems the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future problems , and indicate areas to add value. It ensures house buyers don’t have unpleasant surprise and gives you the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

The property is inspected and identify any significant defects as well as any future or urgent maintenance problems and issues caused by the gradual loss of quality. We check for structural issues, any signs that the building is a leaky building or issues that result from deferred maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten due to peeling paint or areas that are damp or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

The following issues could be costly to solve:

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

Weatherside siding: The weatherboard is known to leak. If the household was built in the 1980s, it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used in the 1980s to the mid-2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally feature a smooth or undulating surface.

Asbestos products: The use of asbestos was widespread from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It can be found placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fences. If asbestos is found in the property, seek expert advice about the risks it presents, how it might be removed, how long it will require to remove, as well as the cost of removal.
