The Reasons Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Important

It’s great, you’ve found a property that looks like it meets all the criteria. The real estate agent reckons it is solidly built and your DIY specialist friend says it looks good. Are you required to check it out?

If you’re buying a home without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase and you be left with costly problems that could be identified, but it could also severely limit the ability to claim damages if the house resulted in significant issues.

A pre-purchase building inspection report by an certified Silverstream building inspector will highlight any flaws the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future problems and highlight areas that can be improved. It assures home buyers don’t face unpleasant surprise and offers you the chance to negotiate a lower cost.

We examine the entire structure and look for any serious flaws, future or urgent maintenance issues , and any problems caused by gradual deterioration. We are looking for structural issues or any indication that the house has a leaky structure or has issues due to delayed maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten because of peeling paint, and areas with damp or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Each of these could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if the home was constructed or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this piping, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside siding: The weatherboard is known to leak. If your house was constructed in the early 80s , it might have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually have a smooth, unbroken appearance.

Asbestos products: The use of asbestos was widespread from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It could be found installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If you find asbestos in the property, seek expert advice about the risks it presents, how it can be removed, how long it will take to remove, and the cost for removal.
