The Reason Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Important

It’s great, you’ve found an apartment that appears like it ticks all the boxes. The real estate agent reckons it’s well-built and your DIY expert friend believes it’s great. Should you really get it checked out?

If you are buying a home without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase, not only could you end up owning some pretty costly issues that might have been identified, you may be severely limiting the possibility of pursuing damages in the event that the home has an issue of significant importance.

A pre-purchase inspection report prepared by an qualified Seaview building inspector will show up any defects the property has, as well as any future problems , and indicate areas that can be improved. This ensures house buyers don’t have any nasty surprises and provides you with an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

We inspect the entire building and look for any serious flaws and any urgent maintenance issues , and any problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We search for structural issues, any signs that the house is not in good repair or has issues due to delayed maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten due to peeling paint and areas where there is damp or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Any of the following might be costly to solve:

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if the household was constructed or rebuilt from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this piping, in the event that you knew they were there.

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

The Plaster monolithic style: In the 1980s and into the mid-2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually are smooth or unbroken surface.

Asbestos construction: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It could be found installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found in a property, get specialist advice on what risk it poses, how it could be removed, how long it will take to remove, and the price of removal.
