Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Important

You’ve found one that looks like it ticks all the boxes. The real estate agent says it is sturdy and solid, while your DIY expert friend believes it’s nice. Should you really check it out?

If you purchase a house without performing a pre purchase inspection, not only could you be left with expensive problems that could have been discovered, but you may severely limit your options for claiming damages if the home has a significant issue.

A pre purchase inspection report from a qualified Seaview building inspector will identify any problems the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future problems , and indicate areas that can be improved. It makes sure that home buyers don’t have any nasty shocks and offers you the chance to negotiate a lower cost.

The property is inspected and identify any significant defects as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues , and any problems caused by gradual deterioration. We look for structural problems and any indications that the building has a leaky structure or has issues due to delayed maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten due to peeling paint and areas where there is damp or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

Any of the following could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if the house was constructed or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage that is caused by this type of pipe, if you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: Weatherside weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the house was constructed in the 1980s, it might have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: It was popular from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually feature a smooth or undulating appearance.

Asbestos products: Used widely from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It is often found installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found at the location, seek professional guidance on the risk it poses, the very best way it might be removed, the length of time it will take to removeit, and the cost for removal.
